About

Despite acclaim from composer and performer colleagues, Busoni’s compositions have remained the preserve of an informed few for too long. Neither inherently conservative nor demonstratively radical, his harmonic and tonal innovations were bound up with a re-creative approach to the musical past that has only gained wider currency over recent decades.
 
This disc includes such gems as the Two Dance Pieces from The Fourth Ballet Suite – one of Busoni’s most impressive virtuosic works and Tanzwalzer, which presents a radically different concept of music designed as entertainment.
 
This disc maintains the high standards set by Harden in his first volume of Busoni piano music... A splendid demonstration of his awesome compositional and pianistic powers aged 18, and Harden’s account is the clear current benchmark.” BBC Music Magazine on Volume 2 (8.555699)
