On the piece and the place:
An Ostensible Waltz by Douglas MacGregor recorded at Krampnitz in July 2013, where I'm sure much ostensibility occurred at some point.
Krampnitz is a huge abandoned military complex, near Postdam, Germany. It was originally used by the Nazis to train cavalry officers and after the war was taken over and used as a military base by the Soviets. The camp was abandoned in 1992.
This recording was made in what appears to be the ballroom of the officers 'club'. The room is in remarkably good condition and sounds amazing.
The Ostensible Waltz is a piece of music that is unhappy with the way things seem at first and tries to delve beneath the 'ostensible' layers to find out what really lies under the surface. It inevitably fails and finds itself back where it began, but with the knowledge of where it has been.
From a technical point of view, the left hand fingering in this piece is about as challenging as it gets.
