About

During his final creative phase Gioacchino Rossini composed mostly for his own pleasure. On the eighth and last volume of his highly regarded, complete, recording of Rossini’s Péchés de Vieillesse, the exceptional pianist Stefan Irmer again conveys to us the composer’s self-irony and biting scorn with the easygoing elegance of two-handed virtuosity and a full portion of wit. Rossini has his two-fisted keyboard fun with titles such as “Miscarriage of a Polka-Mazurka” and “Sampling of Melodic Nonsense for the Right Hand on the Black Keys” and assorted waltz parodies introducing the happy three-four pair of dancers to uncustomary stumbling.
