Summary
"If audiences listened as devotedly to contemporary piano scores as to the great works of the 17th through early 20th centuries, the two works Martin Perry plays here would be regarded as landmarks of the piano's huge repertory. No doubt one day they will be-- Paul Hindemith's 'Ludus Tonalis' has a constituency among discerning pianists and listeners; for many, Hugo Weisgall's 'Sonata for Piano' remains an undiscovered gem, something that may change once listeners who think of Weisgall as principally a vocal composer realize that his instrumental music is just as dazzling, and in many ways more sharp-edged. These works are in strikingly different styles, but they are united by a fascination with forms that link them to the heyday of Classicism-- the three-movement sonata, in Weisgall's case, and the fugue, in Hindemith's"--Container insert.
