Antonio Iturrioz: The Art of the Left Hand (DVD)

This unique exploration of left-hand piano literature features performances by noted pianist Antonio Iturrioz as it delves into the history of a largely neglected body of repertoire, focusing on both well-known and obscure pianists and composers.With a view toward expanding the experience of both musicians and non-musicians, Mr. Iturrioz offers insight into the fascinating world of left hand repertoire as he discusses and demonstrates specific techniques involved in solo left hand playing, and performs such important works as the famous Scriabin Nocturne and Godowsky arrangements of Chopin and Straus. The Art of the Left Hand is not only entertaining, but it is also a valuable and important contribution to the academic setting, as it fills a gap in our awareness of the works by both great and lesser-known composers.
