By including some of my favorite Chopin miniatures alongside three major piano pieces from the 1990's, I could well stand accused of an all-too-common reluctance to break from the past. I prefer to treat with this vexed situation pragmatically, acknowledging the reality that most of my listeners will perceive the new refracted through the lens of the old, and that some will simply be more inclined to keep listening when given a dose of the familiar together with the strange. All three recent works recorded here bear some imprint of the pianistic past-each in a different way-and yet all three successfully outrun it.\" (Thomas Saur)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Traced Overhead, Op. 15~Sursum \u003cbr\u003e1.2 Traced Overhead, Op. 15~Aetheria \u003cbr\u003e1.3 Traced Overhead, Op. 15~Chori \u003cbr\u003e1.4 Three Mazurkas, Op. 59~No. 1 in A Minor \u003cbr\u003e1.5 Three Mazurkas, Op. 59~No. 2 in A-flat Major \u003cbr\u003e1.6 Three Mazurkas, Op. 59~No. 3 in F-sharp Minor \u003cbr\u003e1.7 Piano Sonata~Prelude \u003cbr\u003e1.8 Piano Sonata~Scherzo: Epicycles, Tap-Dancing and a Soft Shoe \u003cbr\u003e1.9 Piano Sonata~Postlude \u003cbr\u003e1.10 Waltz in C Sharp Minor, Op. 64, No. 2 \u003cbr\u003e1.11 Waltz in Ab Major, Op. 64, No. 3 \u003cbr\u003e1.12 Nocturne in E Major, Op. 62, No. 2 \u003cbr\u003e1.13 Ten Studies~Traumlied \u003cbr\u003e1.14 Ten Studies~Sturm \u003cbr\u003e1.15 Ten Studies~Arabeske \u003cbr\u003e1.16 Ten Studies~Ende \u003cbr\u003e1.17 Ten Studies~Boogie-Woogie \u003cbr\u003e1.18 Ten Studies~For the Children \u003cbr\u003e1.19 Ten Studies~Blues \u003cbr\u003e1.20 Ten Studies~Rivière d'oubli \u003cbr\u003e1.21 Ten Studies~Cascades \u003cbr\u003e1.22 Ten Studies~Le trombe del mattino\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAudio Sample:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n                                           \u003ci\u003eAll soundclips are provided by Tidal and are for illustrative purposes only.
