Earl Wild: The Complete Transcriptions and Original Piano Works - Volume 3

The third and final instalment of the complete 'Piano Works' by Earl Wild! Earl Wild (1915-2010) was without doubt one of the greatest pianists of the 20th century. His immense repertoire, his staggering virtuosity, his warmth and his charm deserve him the epithet legendary. Wild was a great improviser as well, and he frequently played his own fantasies in his concerts. Fortunately he wrote these wonderful pieces down, and his creative legacy contains a wealth of transcriptions, fantasies and paraphrases, as well as original piano works. This recording contains Wild's famous 'Fantasy On Porgy and Bess', 'Reminiscences of Snow White', a rare transcription of Saint-Saëns' symphonic poem 'Le Rouet d'Omphale', an elaboration on Handel's 'Harmonious Blacksmith', two favourite Tchaikovsky waltzes and ending in characteristic exuberance with a 'Mexican Hat Dance'.
