Finnissy: Gershwin Arrangements & More Gershwin

 

 

Recording of Michael Finnissy's complete Gershwin Arrangements & More Gershwin (Piano Classics PCL10218).

"My gratitude and deep appreciation for such extraordinary pianism and glowingly sensitive interpretations. Revealingly direct and yet emotionally volatile. Totally authentic in their tenderness, skittishness, and bitter ferocity." - Michael Finnissy

"Huisman’s performances of Finnissy’s two sets of embellishments, explorations, extensions, transformations — these pieces, composed between 1975 and 1990, are all of these things and more — revel in the allure of Finnissy’s skeins of sound. While ready to enhance melody, jazzy swing, and bluesy smokiness, he understands that this music goes beyond homage; his account of Nashville Nightingale has extraordinary emotional power." Stephen Pettitt (Sunday Times)
