Description: Also a lot of very short pieces but we're in a different hemisphere here and on the other side of the world. Covering almost all of his career, the selection here dates from 1921 to 1976 and contains not only the expected urban and folk Brazilian characteristics but also a more cosmopolitan voice which came from Mignone's training in Italy in the early 1920s. A valuable demonstration that there is more to Brazilian piano music than the ongoing Naxos Villa-Lobos series. Clélia Iruzun (piano).
