Another exploration of Maurice Ravel's piano works, this one in a two-CD set recorded in 2003, with Jean-Efflam Bavouzet at the keyboard of a 1901 Steinway Model D.

Straightforward, non-syrupy interpretations in tightly-focused recordings that never let the piano wander beyond its 88-key complement.
