Pianist Erik Bertsch presents this album of fascinating piano music, which took almost 20 years for Stroppa to write.

''Miniature' as it is used here does not so much refer to a piece that is brief as it does to one that is fashioned in great detail, like the elaborately decorated initials of medieval illuminated manuscripts or some of the miniatures from India. 'Estrose' is an untranslatable word with various shades of meaning, having to do with imagination, creative intuition, inspiration and genius, but also extravagance and eccentricity. Suffice it to say that Antonio Vivaldi chose this same word for his L'Estro Armonico' (Marco Stroppa).
