Hartmann / Penderup Scandinavian Folk Music CD

On this release, Danacord presents the first recording of the complete Danish Late Romantic Piano Music by Emil Hartmann. Danish pianist Cathrine Penderup herself made a detective work locating all the solo piano works plus several unpublished manuscripts by the Danish late romantic composer Emil Hartmann. The music is very well constructed for the piano and is full of beautiful tunes and harmonies. Volume 1 included all the original works for solo piano and in this final volume 2 is the first recording of the Scandinavian Folk Music, Op. 30, a collection of danses and melodies arranged for solo piano. A release not to be missed.
