Up to
today Adolf Busch's
compositions have had
only a marginal place in
the world literature
canon, though they have
recently been
rediscovered, newly
published and recorded.
His chief works consist
of chamber music, lieder,
and orchestral pieces,
but he also wrote a
quantity of interesting
piano music (about enough
to fill a CD) showing
various stylistic
characteristics. His
sonata Op. 25, the most
extensive masterpiece in
this genre, has now been
made available in the
present edition, suitable
for both professional
performers and advanced
amateur pianists.
Breitkopf are to be
congratulated for mining
the vaults to bring us
such lesser-known gems
from the archives of the
German romantic
tradition. Busch's
'Sonata' reveals itself
to be as enjoyable as it
is formidable.
