about

Intakt CD 020

Documenting the current work of leading piano-player of Europe, these two CDs – Piano Solo Vol 1 and Piano Solo Vol 2 – show us Irène Schweizers strong individual style, influenced by such varying techniques as ragtime, turn of the century 'salon' music of the new music of Monk or Cecil Taylor. A series of shorter and longer 'piano pieces', which were very sharply defined. A microcosm, created with imagination tightly restrained by formal discipline; two records that achieve the impression of great ease through high concentration.
