Alkan

Check out this incredible recording by master pianist Gerard Bouwhuis of Charles Valentin Alkan, a composer that deserve the fame of his contemporain friends Chopin and Liszt.

Inspired by the strong color-chunked cluster themes of this energetic piece I have printed the cover with wood types in five color rounds on the Korrex press at GWA Amsterdam. The font of the black text is the Annonce, one of my favorite metal types from the GWA collection.
