“The booklet tells us that Perlemuter recalls playing several of the works included to the composer himself, adding wistfully 'he was very complimentary, but I don't know how much that means, for he had become quite deaf by then and could hardly hear me'. So there can be few people on the platform today with longer or closer ties with this music ... the unaffected simplicity of this artist's approach has an eloquence all its own.”
