Description: Published between 1897 and 1912, these chamber works by a composer who was almost as good at pumping out solo piano music as his younger brother Xaver are examples of how backward-looking and conservative the majority of composers in Germany still were at a time when Mahler and Schoenberg were flexing their modernist muscles. Much beautifully melodic stuff here for those of you who missed the single disc releases late last century. 2 CDs. Original 1993 and 1999 releases.
