This, the final volume in Konstantin Scherbakov's recording of Godowsky's complete works for piano is also the second of two volumes dedicated to Godowsky's Studies on the Chopin Ã‰tudes. Scherbakov performs these fearsomely challenging works with aplomb: 'There is no one better for Godowsky' (American Record Guide). The first volume is available on 8.225372 (volume 14 in the series).
