But he was prolific in other forms as well, excelling in chamber and vocal music, and especially in numerous and varied compositions for the piano. The Album Lyrique, Op.17 contains a distillation of Raff’s gifts for writing richly varied character pieces for the piano. They are often slow and meditative, but become increasingly dramatic and sonorous as the music progresses. The Cinq Eglogues, Op.105 are poetic gems, the Impromptu-Valse, Op. 94 attained huge popularity, whilst the Fantaisie-Polonaise, Op.106 reveals Raff’s bravura side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis recording was made on a modern instrument: Steinway, Model D\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTracklist\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eAlbum lyrique, Op. 17 (1849 version) (1845) (00:46:54 )\u003cbr\u003e1\u003cbr\u003eVolume 1: No. 1.
