Description
lthough there aren't many of Leos Janacek's solo piano compositions (1854–1928), they are important to his body of work and constitute one of the mainstays of 20th-century piano literature.
Following the sonata "1.X.1905" and the piano cycle "In the Mists," which could be characterized as the composer's private admission of his spiritual condition, the Bärenreiter Urtext series, in collaboration with Editio Bärenreiter Praha, is releasing what may be Janacek's most well-known piano piece: the cycle of commemorative miniatures "On an Overgrown Path."
