On his ninth solo album on Signum Records, Alessio Bax combines exceptional lyricism and insight with consummate technique and is without a doubt “among the most remarkable young pianists now before the public” (Gramophone). Here he presents an album of works for dancing, including tangos and waltzes spanning three centuries. Featuring composers such as J S Bach, Manuel de Falla and Béla Bartók, a variety of cultures are showcased in this album for solo piano and features contributions to an arrangement by Bax himself.
