Notes & Reviews:
Furious glissandi, monumental chords, breathtaking velocities, most highly complicated rhythms compounded by multilayered meters and after many years of work, Jurgen Hocker is now finally able to fill in this discographic gap with loving and meticulous preparation.
Subtitled ''Original Comositions for Player Piano From the 1920s''
