Piano Works - Vol. 3 Villa-Lobos
Composer(s):
- Heitor Villa-Lobos (1887-1959)
Artist(s):
… the highlight of this CD is the last piece, ‘Rudopoema’... Here Villa-Lobos really shows what he is capable of. Technically, it asks much of the pianist, but technique alone is not enough. … Alfred Heller is without doubt equal to the task and I must say, in this piece he is at his very best … The sound engineers have delivered a good piece of work with this CD. Reformatorisch Dagblad (NL) The protégé of Villa-Lobos, conductor of orchestras in Hungary and America, [Heller] delivers a fascinating performance of ‘Rudepoema’, the most extraordinary and difficult piece of 20th century literature dedicated to Arthur Rubinstein...
