Composer:
Friedrich Gulda

Artist(s):
Marc-Andre Hamelin

Background: Marc-André Hamelin's CD 'in a state of jazz' turns his attention to the music of Kapustin, Antheil, Gulda and Weissenberg - all composers who felt keenly that there was a fundamental desire on the part of the concert-going public to hear something different. This wonderful disc is full of surprises.

Hamelin writes in his entertaining yet scholarly liner notes, 'There is no jazz in this recording. At least not in the traditional sense … There is much to be enjoyed here, and much to be amazed by'.

- May-2008 4 star BBC Music Mag. - Jun-2008 Gramophone Editor's Choice 'his absolute technical mastery is of course expected; less so is the idiomatic way he slips into jazzman mode. Yet there's always the sense of both genres and of an entirely new territory where more or less anything goes'
