Description:

Marc-André Amran's new recording! William Bolcom's "Piano Rag" Complete Collection! Marc-André Amran's new recording is "Ragtime"! All of William Bolcom's piano rags, elegant, cheerful, jazzy and wild! Marc-André Amrand, one of the greatest super virtuoso pianists of our time, has just released a new recording on Hyperion's June 2022 Record of the Month, a rich and fan-favorite collection of William Bolcom's ragtime (piano rags and classical rags). Album!Born in Seattle in 1938, William Bolcom is a composer of ragtime and many other works based on jazz diction, including the Pulitzer Prize, Grammy Award, American National Medal of Arts, Detroit Music Award, and 2007 Composer of the Year by Musical America. He is the recipient of numerous awards and accolades. From the carefree elegance of "Tabby Cat Walk," to the hilarity of "Ubby's Lucky Day" to the wild mischief of "Brass Knuckles," Amlan's superb technique brilliantly colors the enchanting ragtime that Bolcom has accumulated over a lifetime.Amlan's jazz-inspired works include such blockbuster hits as Capustin (CDA67433) and In a State of Jazz (CDA67656), so there are high expectations for this "Bolcom's Piano Rag" as well!
