"Joseph Banowetz is masterly in all these works, none of which could be described as easy to play. More than merely negotiating the challenges, he proves to be a genuine interpreter. Sanderling and the Russian orchestra provide good support (in what is definitely a supporting role), and the sound is excellent." --Fanfare, January 2011
Treated �like a son� by Wilhelm Furtw�ngler and admired by Toscanini as both composer and conductor, Paul Kletzki was active as a composer between 1921 and 1942, relinquishing this creative outlet to become famous solely as a conductor.
All the works on this disc are adventurous, sometimes improvisatory, tonal pieces which push the pianist�s technique and musicianship to the limit.
The Fantasie is a colossal work of highly contrapuntal music, a sonata comprising four movements joined together within a single continuous movement, while the Piano Concerto may be counted among the most significant twentieth-century contributions to the genre.
Joseph Banowetz has been described by Fanfare as �a giant among keyboard artists of our time.�
