This enchanting collection presents some remarkably beautiful but seldom heard masterpieces by Ilinsky, Cui, Suk, Borodin, Palmgren, Fuchs & MacDowell presented alongside lovely pieces by some of the world’s favourite composers. Especially notable are the famous lullabies by Faure & Brahms.
Roger’s performances on LULLABY are, as ever, outstanding in their sensitivity and nuance and only enhance his reputation as one of the world’s great interpreters of classical piano repertoire.
