Description: Over half of this recording gives us earlier Mayerl, in the jazzy/dance-band idiom of his pre-World War II music with the notable anomaly of the 1929 Arthur Legends - a six-movement suite whose seriousness of purpose and of style are worthy of his later compositions. Light piano music" at its best - a genre Mayerl practically invented. Leslie De'Ath (piano).
