DANCES OF OUR TIME Pièces pour Piano

"Dances of Our Time" is a unique collection of new solo piano music featuring a kaleidoscopic array of international piano repertoire of the present day. Prominent composers from 26 countries have contributed 75 dances brimming with esprit, including established forms such as the waltz, Charleston and ländler, that are interpreted through a contemporary musical lens. Folkloristic sounds jostle with songlike moments, jazz miniatures and playful character pieces.
