I Guess, Rather Than Music For 4 Hands, It Would Be Music For 412 Bones.

I guess, rather than music for 4 hands, it would be music for 412 bones.

Either Debussy's Masques...or possibly Bartok? I guess Liszt and Prokofiev also possibilities.

I own this album. It is most tasty. A program of works you won't hear everyday, every year, or...ever. I applaud Ms Klein, wherever she may be, for her explorations and her adventuresome approach.

I've been listening to Mulgrew Miller only about 4 years, but I just think he's great and my love of his playing only grows.

gourmetgorman:

The brilliant Mulgrew Miller playing “I Hear A Rhapsody”.

Mulgrew’s combination of sublime touch, profound knowledge of the history of the idiom, and effortless technique and swing feel make him one of the modern masters of the instrument.

as so often, as too often, another composer whose work is unfamiliar to me...
