Author:
Here is a valuable anthology, for which New World provide extensive annotation. The titanic Sonata and wonderfully evocative Roman Sketches are gloriously idiomatic, searching creations by any standard, and Denver Oldham has their measure. Recommended, in spite of the somewhat hard recording and absence of the Op. 6 Fantasy Pieces. (I do wish that Nonesuch would restore Noel Lee’s incomparable all-Griffes recital, 12/83 – nla.)AA
