Javier Perianes - Chopin: Piano Sonatas Nos. 2 & 3

Beyond the celebrated Funeral March, Chopin's Second and Third Sonatas testify to their composer's astounding ease in musical structures on a much larger scale than waltzes, nocturnes and mazurkas. The three mazurkas that make up his Op.63 are cunningly used here to frame Javier Perianes's latest musical project. Whether in small or large forms, the most famous of all Romantic piano composers was an absolute master of musical dramaturgy.
