This set conveniently collects Griffes' four masterpieces: the impressionistic Roman Sketches, Four Tone-Pictures and Fantasy Pieces, and the masterful Piano Sonata, a work in one movement from 1919, anticipating Bloch and even Prokofiev, angry, violent, dissonant, rhythmically daring for its days.See my reviews of various recordings: Griffes: Complete Piano Works, Vol. 1, MacDowell & Griffes, Vol. 1, MacDowell & Griffes, Vol. 2, MacDowell & Griffes, Vol. 3 and MacDowell & Griffes, Vol. 4.
