Subtitled Images and Impressions for Piano this expansive suite embraces a variety of styles and forms including tudes, preludes, color studies, seascapes, moonscapes and nocturnes. One of Zorn's longest compositions, this is a major new work for solo piano brilliantly performed by Stephen Gosling, a long time Zorn specialist and one of the best new music pianists in the world. Embracing influences Ligeti, Scriabin, Bach, Glass, Debussy, Bartok, Berio, Feldman, Xenakis, Schoenberg and more, this is one of the most varied classical piano suites ever written.
