Ludwig Thuille, who lived his short life from 1861 until 1907, is host Fred Flaxman's latest compact discovery. Folksy parts of his "Piano Sextet" sound as though they might have been written by Dvorak, while his "Piano Quintet in G Minor" sounds very much like Brahms. These two works are featured, the first as performed by the Appalachian Wind Quintet with Noel Lester at the piano; the second by the Falk Quartet with Tomer Lev, pianist. The complete script with playlist is available here and at www.compactdiscoveries.com.
