Description:
Written to be played by children perhaps, but not all these pieces are as simple as the title may suggest! Miniature modern masterpieces by some of the 20th century's greatest composers. Raymond Clarke is an acknowledged master of the 20th century repertoire and his previous recordings have received immense praise. He has been described as a staggering pianist of exceptional gifts.
Recorded on the 1st September & 16th December 2001.
