Kapustin: Piano Music

Here is a disc to set the pulse racing. Nikolai Kapustin is a Russian composer who wrote jazz piano music teeming with energetic spontaneity and bristling with the kind of creative immediacy one associates with improvisation (although the music is fully and meticulously written out). Kapustin is already known to the Hyperion catalogue through Steven Osborne's trail-blazing recording of the first two 'Piano Sonatas' and the 'Preludes in Jazz Style', and Marc-André Hamelin is another pianist who has for years played his music in concert. Hamelin's legendary technical prowess and his exceptional affinity with jazz fuse to create one of the most sparkling, infectiously foot-tapping piano discs you could wish to hear. This 180g LP is part of Hyperion's 2026 vinyl edition.
