Dvorák: Poetic Tone Pictures, Op.85 - Leif Ove Andsnes - Vinyl LP Record (Arrives in 50 days)

A rare jewel among the piano repertoire, Dvořák’s Poetic Tone Pictures, a cycle of piano solo works, is mostly unknown to the public. Following the great success of his Sibelius album in 2017, Leif Ove Andsnes once again brings lesser known piano music into the spotlight, delivering a treasure chest of accessible and romantic tunes performed with artistic brilliance.

The album presents a colorful collection of thirteen beautiful short piano works each with its own characterful title such as "Twilight Way" and "Goblin's Dance".

Dvořák’s piano compositions were largely overshadowed by his popular symphonies and chamber music works. With Poetic Tone Pictures, the composer offers a rich palette of various different moods, from romantic and dream-like, to wild and furious. Its poetic temperament and technically rewarding piano stylization make it a gem that not only Dvořák fans will find great pleasure in.
