American Take on Aussie Classic.......2001-12-15
What an interesting project! Composer Rosenhaus has written a set of variations on the classic Austrialian folk song, Waltzing Matilda, for solo piano, and he seems to have had a lot of fun doing it. Imagine, if you will, WM as a tango (!), a waltz (natch), as fodder for an invention by J.S. Bach, and, well, you get the idea. Laura Leon is a fine pianist. The combination of Rosenhaus' (Rosenhaus's?) music and Leon's playing is a match made in musical heaven. The only downside -- the c.d. is a "single" and only 7 minutes in duration. More please!
