Two composers with very contrasted sound-worlds, but brought together in the piano pieces on this album - the fascination of many composers from early days to the present with musical mechanisms (such as the metronome march in Beethoven's Eighth Symphony). This CD with a variety of works for different instruments is a good introduction to contemporary music.
