Description
Welcome, dear Maestro Kissin, to G. Henle Publishers. We are honored and proud to publish the first three compositions by the world-renowned, inspired pianist Evgeny Kissin, who has turned to composing in earnest in recent years.
The first of these compositions is a cycle of four piano pieces that, given Kissin's virtuosic talents, should come as no surprise. The "Toccata" is an exceptionally virtuosic, jazz-inspired tour de force that has already been performed as an encore at his concerts. The titles "Meditation" and "Dodecaphonic Tango" perfectly capture the respective moods of these expressive character pieces. The unpretentious "Intermezzo" provides a brief moment of contemplation before the dazzling "Toccata."
