Product Description

Immerse yourself in the vibrant and diverse world of Louis Moreau Gottschalk with the sixth volume of his complete piano music, released on Hyperion in 2003. This captivating collection spans a little over an hour and a half, showcasing Gottschalk's virtuosity and eclectic influences.

The album opens with the lively "Le carnaval de Venise," a grand caprice and variations that demonstrate Gottschalk's flair for the dramatic. The somber "Marche funèbre" offers a stark contrast, highlighting the composer's emotional depth. Piano enthusiasts will appreciate the technical prowess on display in pieces like "Vision 'Etude'" and "Printemps d'amour," a mazurka that sparkles with romantic fervor.

Gottschalk's love for dance forms is evident in tracks like "Danse ossianique" and "Danse des sylphes," both of which blend classical elegance with a touch of whimsy. The album also includes a nod to other composers, such as the "La favorita" fantaisie, inspired by Donizetti's opera.

From the elegant "Caprice élégiaque" to the playful "Colliers d'or" mazurkas, this volume offers a comprehensive journey through Gottschalk's musical landscape. Whether you're a longtime admirer of Gottschalk or a newcomer to his work, this album is a treasure trove of piano artistry that will leave you enchanted.
