I think the label has been bought, and I don't remember by whom so i'm not sure if they changed the name, but Hyperion has released a LOT of cds with his music, as has Brilliant Classics (which I think released a box set?)
Damn I've never heard of this composer before you've been taking about him. Like 1-2 month ago me would've not known who this is lol. Thank you for sharing this with us! :D
You should definitely look into Alkan! He's very underrated but has found a lot of fame in modernity because of pianists like Hamelin, Maltempo, Jack Gibbons, and Ronald Smith. I have a video of his Concerto for Solo Piano which is arguably his most famous work. His Le Festin d'Esope is also very much worth checking out too :)

Alkan was so creative and innovative mainly in terms of structure, rythms and harmony!
Underrated set
Play this!!!!!!!
Alkan Love 💕💕💕
The third one is so spectacular, the slow parts are so beautiful and the prestissimo parts are so earwormy and exciting, especially at 16:22 .
This is really interesting music you know. And its really underrated. I can" t find much cd's of this guy. I will really try to find them!

oh wow, the coda to that 3rd scherzo! Love it. I've heard it before, but I thought it had a title? Huh.
Wow this is an incredible discovery! Indeed all three are really "pleins de bravoure", and the playing as well. The part starting at 15:18... 😎👍
Great upload! People never talk about these
Similar to La Boite à musique of Severac at 3:03 but it's 70 years before
Oh cool, I've been hearing bout these for a while, but keep forgetting to check em out
upload ありがとうございます。
Harpsichord で弾いたら、どうなるか、ふと興味が湧きました。やっぱりピアノが良いですね(高音部が優しいので)。
聴いてみて、演奏が少し緊張しているかも知れません。
12:08 that scared me
Ah shoot, something must’ve went wrong with encoding for this vid. Goddammit.
Alkan jumpscare be like:
Ok
15:18
Nicr
My ears feel beat to hell
