Ignacy Jan Paderewski (November 6, 1860 – June 29, 1941) was a Polish virtuoso pianist, composer, diplomat and politician, the third Prime Minister of Poland.

Paderewski's appearance, along with his blend of aristocratic refinement and power over the masses, was certainly what the time required.
Although Paderewski aspired to be a great composer and considered it his most enjoyable pursuit, he devoted only a relatively small portion of his energies to it.
Although Paderewski travelled all over the world and had a home in Switzerland, he wrote in his memoirs, "America, the country of my heart, my second home." His heart is interned at the church of the Black Madonna in Doylestown, Pennsylvania.

While there's no classic recordings here or big names, most of the tracks are well played and acceptable in sound quality.
There are some interesting pieces here that are unfamiliar to most, such as the Dvorak Humoresque or the Paderewski Minuet, as well as classics such as the Debussy Clair de Lune or the Mozart Concerto.
The rendition of the Rhapsody in Blue is a nice performance with a well done ending that may even be better than some other CD's made by big named pianists.
