Description: Composed between 1890 and 1903, these are technically advanced, high-quality salon music, being suites mostly of stylized dances with, in No. 2, character pieces replacing the latter. Nothing of depth-plumbing originality here - just bright, sparkling diamonds of their genre and the sort of thing virtuosic piano duos love to perform. Piano Duo Genova & Dimitrov.
