Enjoy this CD with some excellent renditions of American piano music. Some are a little different in their tempo to what is usually performed but the performances are all excellent and a pleasure to listen to.

Not as brilliant and fast as I'd expected. Bought both discs. Prefer Davis. Oop, except through an ArkivMusic reissue.
