I just went to look these up in Hinson's Pianist's Guide and found nothing on this set.  I did order the cd through ILL though, and when I can get to a printer, I'll print it out and read through them.
When you earnestly believe you can compensate for a lack of skill by doubling your efforts, there's no end to what you can't do.

Some of these pieces are really cool.  I thought Stephen Coombs did a very good job with these.

Which do you like in particular?  The c# looks pretty big.  (Still awaiting a recording through ILL...)

The C-sharp minor is awesome.  I also love the one in D minor and the one in E-flat minor.
