Fredrik Ullén, who performs all of Ligeti's piano music on this two-CD set, comments in the program notes about being struck by "the immediacy of the music, in spite of its complexity." His statement pretty well sums up the enormous appeal of Ligeti's work and accounts for his standing as one of the most universally respected and popular composers of "serious" music in the second half of the twentieth century. He was able to write music that incorporated some of the most advanced technical developments of his era and make it attractive to broad audiences.

Ligeti's piano music, which spanned his career from his student days until the end of his life, offers a distilled traversal of many of the musical styles he embraced and illuminates his deepening maturity as a composer. In bringing together all of Ligeti's piano music, Ullén demonstrates the composer's mastery of a wide diversity of styles, as well as the breadth and emotional range of his vision.
