HutchFan Posted February 27 Report Share Posted February 27 More Chopin by Malcuzynski. Six Polonaises. More wonderful performances. And how about that cover design?!? The striking simplicity reminds me of Reid Miles, particularly the way the designer uses fonts to such powerful effect. Not to make too much of it, but I think the design also deliberately echoes Malcuzyski's interpretive approach to Chopin. No languid moonlight and watercolor lilies here. Instead, these are masculine and clear-eyed readings with each note deliberately sculpted.   Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
