Eloq: Piano Encores on CD

Jorge Bolet was an avowed romantic, happy to relax once the serious business of his recital is over. Like moiseiwitsch, he could be mischievously enterprising, challenging his audience to guess the composer of this or that rare poetic jewel or confection - or, like rubinstein, he could affectionately confirm and recreate their favourites. With delightful old world charm, fleet of finger, yet ever conscious of the singing line, bolet weaves pure magic in this collection of encores. After a long absence from the catalogue, this disc returns, now at budget price.
