Zoltán Kocsis — Pianist

Program notes

Join illustrious Hungarian pianist Zoltán Kocsis in this 1991 recital, in which the virtuoso performs three works dedicated to childhood! First on the program is Schumann's Kinderszenen, a romantic piano masterpiece actually designed for adults, and infused with childhood's nostalgia... Then comes Debussy's Children's Corner, a series of very colorful pieces that the French master composed for his daughter. The recital ends with For Children, a remarkable cycle of Bartók studies inspired by traditional Hungarian and Slovak folk music.
