Gerit Lense – Klavierstucke [CD]

For Joseph Haas (1879-1960), meeting Max Reger, whom he followed to Leipzig, was a life-changing experience. He soon began to enjoy success as a composer, which led to his appointment as a teacher of composition at the conservatory in Stuttgart in 1911 and to the Academy of Music in Munich in 1921. The second episode contains a representative selection of Joseph Haas’ piano works, which convey the diversity and uniqueness of his compositional style. Pianist Gerit Mense more than does justice to Joseph Haas’ work with her colorful, emphatic playing!
