Description
The Russian-born German-Swiss composer Paul Juon (1872–1940) produced a generous amount of piano music – no fewer than 35 opus numbers – that has yet to be explored in any detail. This first instalment of the first-ever survey of his piano music reveals a composer close to his Russian roots but also alive to the music of his own time. His style has much in common with Medtner and Rachmaninov, both friends from student days, but with a harmonic freedom that suggests Debussy. His inventive use of rhythm calls on folk influences from Azerbaijan, Armenia and elsewhere. This release is the first of a series of collaborations between Toccata Classics and Mexican musicians.
