Dohnanyi: Complete Solo Piano Music

The penultimate volume in Hyperion's four-part survey of the complete solo piano music of Erno Dohnanyi focuses on music from the period when the composer's preeminent position was assured. The titles of the largest works here, Ruralia hungarica and the Variations on a Hungarian Folksong, mask in their nationalistic ostentation the skill of a true master of piano composition. Martin Roscoe inhabits the world of Dohnanyi's music like no other, and this new recording is a joy.
