Is it worth browsing?
It is worth a look if you want to hear a pianist who moves between modern and historical instruments, follow his concert and academic schedule, read short essays on music and education, or access the free downloads. If you are looking specifically for purchase prices, streaming links, or a full commercial catalog, the homepage evidence does not confirm those details, so you would need to explore the individual sections further.
