Description: This collection of song and other transcriptions and nine Godowsky originals tends decidedly toward the delicious and delectable (the Waltz-Poems of 1929 are particularly entrancing) rather than to heaven-storming virtuosity (not that virtuosity isn't necessary at times). Konstantin Scherbakov (piano).
