About
On Left Hand Legacy five top-of-the-bill chamber musicians from The Netherlands join forces to pay tribute to this hidden treasure. They are determined to tell audiences all around the globe about this utterly special onearmed man Wittgenstein, in music and words, on stage and on CD.
In the chamber music setting the one-handed piano is treated like a different instrument; full and rich whilst retaining a transparent sound. All four composers were famous in their time, composed in a late romantic idiom, and therefore became somewhat overshadowed by their modernist colleagues. It says enough, that this album features two world-premiere recordings; Ernest Walker's Variations on an Original Theme and Josef Labor's Violin Sonata no.3 in E major.
