Java Suite (orientally-themed music composed in 1924, a must-listen) by Godowsky

Hey! Did you know this wonderful set of piano pieces Godowksy wrote after he travelled to the Java Islands (Indonesia), in ~1924? I was in awe when I first listened to it, because I had no idea the piano could produce such peculiar sounds. Definetely explains why Godokwsy was nicknamed "The Buddha of the Piano" by his colleagues.
Some of my favourite movements are here (performed by me):
