Sebbene siano conosciuti soprattutto nella meravigliosa versione orchestrale, i balletti La bella addormentata nel bosco di Piotr Ilic Ciaikovsky e Romeo e Giulietta di Sergei Prokofiev esistono anche in versioni pianistiche, che consentono di apprezzarne alcuni dettagli e preziosismi che nella ricchezza della scrittura orchestrale rischiano spesso di passare quasi inosservati. Questo disco permette di ascoltarli nella incantevole interpretazione della pianista Claire Huangci.
