Description
The piano music of the Portuguese virtuoso and composer JosE Vianna da Motta (1868–1948) absorbs Romantic influences from Beethoven, Chopin, Liszt and Brahms. To this mix Vianna da Motta added elements from Portuguese folk-music to constitute a major step in the development of a national style for Portuguese classical music. His last piano piece, a MEditation recorded here for the first time, reveals da Motta in the visionary soundworld of late Liszt and Skryabin. This release marks the 150th anniversary of Vianna da Motta's birth and the 70th anniversary of his death.
