Complete Piano Works of Tobias Picker Now Available on New Wergo Recording

Wergo Records is proud to announce the release this month of Tobias Picker - Keys to the City: the complete solo piano music of Tobias Picker. Featuring the pianist Ursula Oppens, this comprehensive recording traces an evolution in the composer's writing for piano from the virtuosic challenges of his Four Etudes for Ursula and the jazzy, urbane landscape of Keys to the City to the lyrical simplicity of Old and Lost Rivers, ... when soft voices die ..., and The Blue Hula. Listeners will also have a rare opportunity to hear the composer performing in the two piano version of Keys to the City.
