More Info:

The early 20th century witnessed the flowering of an exciting new style of piano composition that fused European classical music traditions with the popular music styles of the New World. George Gershwin’s music is highly representative of this tradition, but with this recording, pianist Frederick Hodges and Rivermont present a sampling of some of the lesser known gems of piano writing that emerged during the era. Includes works by Dana Suesse, Billy Mayerl, Rube Bloom, Louis Alter, George L. Cobb, and others, masterfully performed in Hodges’s signature crisp, scintillating style. The deluxe 24-page color illustrated booklet features detailed liner notes by the artist. 22 tracks, 78 minutes.
