This programme reveals Palmgren's versatility to the full, with the Deux contrastes describing opposite poles of melancholy and joyous playfulness, and the dreamy Prelude-Nocturne a jazz-tinted reminiscence of 1920s America. Displaying a wide variety of technical and stylistic challenges, Palmgren's 24 Preludes also features one of the first examples of Impressionism in Nordic piano literature.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Konsertetyd (Concert Étude) in C Major \u003cbr\u003e1.2 *2 Contrastes (Contrasts) \u003cbr\u003e1.3 No. 1.
