He visited Grieg in Norway in 1907 and was awakened to \"a heart that cherished folk songs. He then traveled around England with a phonograph invented by Edison and collected folk songs. His experiences in arranging these songs are condensed in the piano pieces on this album. The most famous of these is probably \"Lincolnshire Bouquet. Originally written for brass band, the arrangement here was made for two pianos in 1937, and the atmosphere of the piece is amplified even further. The Fantasy from Gershwin's masterpiece \"Porgy and Bess\" is also a wonderful work that captures the essence of sadness. Weichert, one of the duo, is highly acclaimed for his intelligent performance of Schulhoff's works (GP604).The other pianist, Rave, is known for premiering works by Lachenmann and specializes in contemporary music.
