Stravinsky, Hindemith, Toch, Antheil, Casella, and Malipiero all discovered this instrument and between 1915 and 1927 wrote the original compositions featured on this CD.

“This fascinating collection brings together for the first time, some of the most important contributions, the highlight being George Antheil’s spectacular Ballet Mécanique, here realised in a mesmerising version for four pianos and eight hands……an absolutely essential disc for anyone interested in the more outrageous musical endeavours of the period.
