Gade's piano music is steeped in Danish folk music, yet technically demanding and always very pianistic so that both piano pupils and experienced pianists will find many rewarding challenges when playing this music. The present album provides an insight into Gade's piano oeuvre and shows his importance in his day. Thanks to their numerous facets, the piano works of this great composer still are a valuable addition to lessons and concert performances.
