I'm still taking a bit of a break from blogging but I've come out of the blogging sabbatical for a couple of things. Ethan Iverson has mentioned that Steve Beck has recorded all five of George Walker's piano sonatas. If you've heard of George Walker and want an introduction to his work this is basically "the" album to get.
I've thought about writing about Walker's work over the years but I can't really do better than some of the scholarship that's been done on his music in the last ten years that I've alluded to or referenced in other blog posts in the past. So, anyway, go get this album and happy Valentine's Day for those who are into that.
