The most original album os the one dedicated to Fritz Kreisler's recordings... at the piano! In these rolls dated 1919-27 he plays his own compositions with the charme and humor we know he had as violinist. In an astounding sound quality, he reveals an exquisite finger flow and agility, but especially a rhythmic freedome he could not indulge in on the violin.
