Just discovered this composer. Underrated and cruelly overlooked.

A very nice an approachable set by Alkan, well played by Laurent Martin. I was pleased he does not follow Alkan's rather too brisk metronome mark in L'amitié, but disappointed by his somnambulistic slow tempo in no.4, a piece that really needs more zest to remain interesting.
