Hiroshi Yokoshima

Description:

Hiroshi Yokoshima, one of Japan's leading Mannerist composers, recorded a collection of piano works by Heinrich von Herzogenberg (1843-1900) with another composer and pianist, Masanobu Shinoda. Herzogenberg was an important composer between Brahms and Reger, and a prolific composer whose works outside of opera ranged from large-scale religious works to symphonies, concertos, and chamber music. In particular, he has shown special skill in "Variations," and it is of great significance to present to the world his complete set of variations for piano solo. ALM RECORDS/Kojima Recording
