Henri Sigfridsson, piano

This CD features Finnish pianist Henri Sigfridsson performing works by Finnish composer Selim Palmgren.

Selim Palmgren (1878-1951) is regarded as the most important post-romantic composer for piano in Finland. The core of his output is formed by his five piano concertos and more than 300 small pieces for piano.

The Sonata in D minor is Palmgren's most extensive work for piano and it was hailed as a milestone in Finnish music.

Henri Sigfridsson (b. 1974) is one of the major Finnish musical talents of his generations and has built up a successful international career.
