Mccabe: Haydn Variations; Study No. 3; Study No. 4; Study No. 6; Variations, Op. 22; Five Bagatelles

John McCabe's survey of his own piano music, featuring both miniatures and more substantial pieces, is most enjoyable. The sound is atmospheric, the playing first class, while the music itself is direct and approachable, including the 30-minute-long Haydn Variations. Terry Barfoot
