Alkan's monumental Twelve Studies in all the Major keys, opus 35, is a virtuosic tour-de-force for the pianist. Each study develops an aspect of technique but each is also pure Alkan - millions of notes and thunderous drama. McCallum has been praised world-wide for her Alkan performances, displaying prodigious technique and poised musicianship. web
