Notes

Original compositions by: G. Gershwin, S. Barber, A. Copland. Anna Lisa Fergola and Roberto Ramadori piano duet. 24bit/96kHz original recording made at Magister Area Studios, Preganziol (Italy) on October 2009.

Sounds' Falls represents an exciting excursus on 20th century American “cultured” music, through the fascinating sound of the piano played four hands.
Anna Lisa Fergola and Roberto Ramadori, pianists of international stature, take us by the hand and lead us across the Great Country with the soundtrack written by three of America's greatest composers: George Gershwin, Aaron Copland, and Samuel Barber.
From the celebrated Rhapsody in Blue to the Three Preludes, to the variations on I Got Rhythm; from the watercolors dedicated to the most famous rhythms of Samuel Barber's Souvenirs suite, to Copland's variations on Shaker Melody: all narrated by the rich sound of the prince of instruments played with four hands.
Another point of interest for this recording is the specific instrument used, a Steinway & Sons D274 Concert Grand piano, resident in the Magister Area Studio, built in New York in 1928: exactly the type of piano used by Gershwin, rather than by Copland or Barber, to compose this music.
The sound of this album marks a further step towards the absolute fidelity of piano reproduction, which literally materializes in the home listening environment.
One of the most fascinating piano sounds ever translated to record thanks to the most advanced digital technology and exclusive recording techniques perfected by Marco Lincetto inside the Great Yellow Room of the Magister Area Studio in Preganziol.
