This new release is the second installment in Earl Wild’s complete piano transcriptions. The first volume was release to critical acclaim. It was regarded as, “extremely well played… possibly my favourite piano disc of 2014.” (Classical Net) For this volume, Wild’s transcriptions of Rachmaninoff compositions are featured, including “Dreams, Op. 38 No. 5,” “Midsummer Night, Op. 14 No. 5,” and “Floods of Spring, Op 14 No. 11.” Performing these outstanding transcriptions is Giovanni Doria Miglietta, who rises to the challenges that these extremely virtuosic pieces present.
