MARTINU: Complete Piano Music, Vol. 3 (Giorgio Koukl/ RSI) (Naxos: 8.557919)
Shipping time: Usually ships within 1-3 days
This third release in the Naxos complete Martino solo piano music series represents the most mature style of his work. It begins with Martino's two masterworks for the genre: the 'Fantaisie et toccata', written as he made his escape from Paris in 1940, and the solitary 'Sonata', his largest and last major work for solo piano. The three sets of 'Etudes and Polkas' were composed while Martino was living at Cape Cod. Although they hark back to Smetana, DvoY?ík, and Czech folk roots, they also bear the individual, distinctive voice of a mature Martino, filled with both a post-War optimism and a longing for a native land to which he would never return
