Composer:
Nikolai Medtner

Artist(s):
Geoffrey Tozer

Background: Few pianists tackle the works of Nikolai Medtner. Less showy than that of contemporaries such as Rachmaninov, his music resides in relative obscurity. This is a great loss, for it is abundant with ravishing lyricism and if it is not so immediate as some might expect of Russian music of this period, its dark mysticism makes intriguing listening.

With this disc, Geoffrey Tozer, a stalwart champion of Nikolai Medtner, continues his acclaimed survey of the composer’s complete piano works in the hope of bringing about greater recognition of this unfairly neglected composer.
