Repertoire: Miniature Masterpieces (No. 41) Reynaldo Hahn

Reynaldo's Hahn's keyboard collection Le rossignol éperdu (The Bewildered Nightingale) consists of 53 miniature "poems for piano." They are delicious. Join me in hearing a few samples, thanks to the artistry of the inimitable Earl Wild, on Ivory Classics. This is one of those evocative masterpieces that deserves to be better known. You can enjoy it complete, or in bits of any size, as you please. Hahn was one of those composers who knew exactly what his strengths were, and whose music does full justice to them.
