...a very early work, coupled with other piano works, from Toccata Classics:

I suspect that the other pieces on this CD will be of more interest....

I'm afraid I can't raise much enthusiasm for this recording. Neither Da Motta's Symphony nor his Piano Concerto are very inspired works.

I share your lack of enthusiasm. I haven't heard anything by Vianna da Motta that has made me sit up and take notice.

Sadly, I am of the same opinion.

I found them moreso last I heard them, so maybe I'll enjoy this more...
