the album cover for Walker / Dossin - Complete Piano Works, Vol. 1

This is the first of two volumes of George Walker's complete piano works, both featuring performances by Alexandre Dossin. The three sonatas heard here offer compelling contrasts. Sonata No. 1 is his longest and utilises folk tunes, No. 2 is darker and unified by tonal relationships, while No. 3 displays contrapuntal mastery and translucent elements. The album opens with the serene and majestic Prelude and Caprice, while both Spatials and Spektra are atonal. Bauble is heard in a world premiere recording.

Tracklist:

  1. Prelude and Caprice
  2. Piano Sonata No. 1~Allegro energico
  3. Piano Sonata No. 1~Theme and Six Variations
  4. Piano Sonata No. 1~Allegro con brio
  5. Piano Sonata No. 2~Theme and Ten Variations
  6. Piano Sonata No. 2~Presto
  7. Piano Sonata No. 2~Adagio
  8. Piano Sonata No. 2~Allegretto tranquillo
  9. Spatials
