No problem Alan I wil do thanks.

Yes I know the forum is dedicated to more less recognised composers. I've never heard of Lili Boulanger till yesterday. I'm very interested in listening to some less recognised composers that's why I'm here I just didn't know where to start.

Hi folks just an update on all your suggestions. I've spent most of today listening to Lili Boulanger and I think it's great stuff. Do any of you have any suggestions of any recommended recordings of just her piano works or her entire works? I really love the short solo piano pieces that I've heard so far.

Iam familiar with a lot of classical music but my main interest is piano music and I want to explore this more.  I'm very familiar with all of Debussy's piano works and I love it very much. I'm also fairly familiar with Ravel too but I don't know where else to look.  I will have a listen to all of the recommendations and give you my thoughts in a couple of days after I've had a chance to listen to them.

Thanks for the advice I'll certainly do that. I've started to discover some more over the past couple of days.

Hi I'm newish to classical music. I particularly like piano music from the romantic and impressionist period. Can anyone recommend any good composers and recordings for me to check out?? Any help would be appreciated.

Hi I'm new here I'm not heavily into classical music but I like some opera and piano music. I love the music of Erik Satie for example. Anyway a couple of months ago I discovered the wonderful music of Claude Debussy. Of course I was already familiar with his piece Clair De Lune but hadn't really heard anything else by this composer. Anyway I heard Clair De Lune again on the television and I had to listen to some of his other works. After buying multiple works over the past couple of months I have to say that I've fallen in love with his work but I love his images in particular. I've heard multiple versions so far but my favourite is performed by Zoltan Kocsis. It's a little different to everybody else I've listened to. I really look forward to hearing other performances by this performer. Any recommendations would be great.
