An anniversary accolade with a twist: one hundred and ?fty years after his birth, this is a wonderful recital of some of the many works dedicated to Leopold Godowsky. It’s dif?cult to imagine more persuasive performances than these by Andrey Gugnin, who makes a second appearance on Hyperion after his universally – and vociferously – acclaimed Shostakovich.
