Notes & Reviews:

Well-known for her definitive recordings of 20th-century composers, Barbara Nissman continues to explore her 19th century roots. Hailed by a New York critic as "one of the last pianists in the grand Romantic tradition," her connection to the golden age of pianism provides the solid foundation with which to also explore music of this century.
