Animations: 27 Pieces on the Lively Side (for Piano)

Animations is a collection of pieces focusing on lively rythms and sparkling, crisply articulated playing – though not all the music is at faster tempos.
There are goblins and grasshoppers, gypsies and witches. Grieg and Goldschidt co-exist with Horne and Hummel. There is entertaining and sometimes unfamiliar music by, Scarlatti, Schubert and Schumann. There is dance aplenty, as you would expect in an album devoted to movement, and as well as a waltz and a mazurka, there is a gigue by Reger and a gallop by Casella.
