This recording combines the lyrical and rhythmic vitality of early 20th century Brazilian and American popular music with Rifkin's thoughtful and artistic realization, in much the same way as his 1970's recordings of Joplin piano works did on the Nonesuch label. As with those recordings, the sound here is good and the performances excellent. Various different interpretations of Nazareth, Scott, and Lamb exist, and some might find the slower pace of Rifkin's ragtime playing eccentric, but I believe these performances to be subtle and truly musical, as opposed to surface and expected. Rifkin's approach to some of Nazareth's tangos is profoundly romantic, revealing music that recalls the inner experience of love, desire, and fleeting pleasure. The ragtime pieces are honed and flawless in execution - particularly his reading of Scott's "Troubadour" and "Modesty" rags, both of which show this usually rather "technical" composer in a more meditative manner.
