Product Notes

The Latvian composer Janis Kepitis (1908-89) has a fairly low profile even in his home country, never mind beyond it's borders. His output was nonetheless substantial, with no fewer than six symphonies to his name, ten concertos, a number of large-scale choral-orchestral pieces, countless songs and choruses and a voluminous body of chamber music - almost all of it unknown. Kepitis was himself a gifted pianist, and his hundred or so compositions for piano show a predilection for the miniature. The works here, most of them discovered among his manuscripts, inhabit a world downstream from Skryabin and Rachmaninoff, with a gentle hint of Debussy and an occasional wisp of Latvian folk-music.
