Feux et Tonnerres ! - Hommage pianistique à Berlioz

[Wheesht]

This Forlane disc by Norwegian pianist Daniel Propper contains quite a few 19th century French piano rarities. For excerpts and download see  Presto.

This sounds exactly like my sort of thing!

This is indeed an excellent CD! The only problem from a marketing perspective is that, at first glance, it gives little idea as to the contents - I nearly passed it by, but thankfully a closer inspection revealed some very interesting repertoire! I would highlight Heller's Caprice Symphonique in particular - a real virtuoso showpiece that one would not normally associate with this composer, better known for his didactic studies and shorter morceaux. The is plenty more to enjoy here though, and I have no hesitation in thoroughly recommending it to anyone interested in lesser-known 19th century piano music.

Yes, this is very interesting and the recording sounds excellent to me. Thanks for alerting us, Wheesht.

A must-have, thank you.
