A rich anthology featuring a great piano repertoire opens with

one of Mozart’s most successful sonatas (K 332 in F major, published together with sonatas K 330 and 331 in 1784)

and concludes with one of the most well-known pages of Chopin’s history: the Grande Polonaise Brillante of 1830;

five years later, the composer added the initial Andante Spianato. In between, three compositions dating back to the years 1906-1908: Sonata op. 5 by Scriabin, the first of the second series of Debussy’s Images, along with Ravel’s transcendental and visionary Gaspard de la nuit, inspired by a poem by Aloysius Bertrand.
