Description: Of course it would have been nicer to have a whole disc of Latvian piano music but at least this young pianist has given us a bit over 16 minutes of water-associated titles by five of her compatriots and I doubt if you’ve ever heard anything by any of them except for Vītols. Arta Arnicane (piano).
