Dal informace:

The sparkling, shimmering surface of music of Castiglioni's work is quite unlike anything else in modern Italian music. Coloured by his work in the theatre and literary allusion these piano pieces are wonderfully played by Sarah Nicolls.

“It’s splendid to have a single disc devoted to the piano music of Castiglioni… such discs as Sarah Nicolls has now compiled are very much a rarity. The recorded sound is commendably clear yet warm and Nicolls explores these diverse works with a surety and finesse that are admirable - and truly winning.” - Jonathan Woolf (MusicWeb)

“The objectivity of post-darmstadt modernism hangs over everything in Noccolò Castiglioni's music, but through this prism he's free to express anything he wants. There's florid decoration owing much to the vocal acrobatics of Italian opera; references to Baroque and classical keyboard stylings abound everywhere, and Castiglioni even plunders ragtime in one piece. British pianist Sarah Nicolls has a ball.” - Philip Clark (The Wire)

“There's not enough Castiglioni out on disc, so this one comes warmly recommended.”- Dan Warburton (Paris Transatlantic)
