Her most personal recording\, the disc features five world premieres composed for Faliks by Clarice Assad\, Mike Garson\, Veronika Krausas\, Ljova and Maya Miro Johnson\, as well as Schubert-Liszt\, Fazil Say and Fanny Mendelssohn\, featuring music for solo piano and spoken word.

With her all-Beethoven CD release on MSR\, WTTW called Faliks “High priestess of the piano\, concert pianist of the highest order\, as dramatic and subtle as a great stage actor.” Sound of Verse\, was released in 2009\, featuring music of Boris Pasternak\, Rachmaninoff and Ravel. “Polonaise-Fantasie\, Story of a Pianist” on Delos captures her autobiographical monologue-recital with short piano works from Bach to Carter. \n\n\n\nFaliks is founder and curator of Music/Words\, an award-winning poetry-music series: performances in collaboration with distinguished poets.

His legacy as an artist teacher is documented by one of his former students\, Dr. Judy Hutton\, in her 1993 DMA treatise.  In 1994\, at the age of ninety\, Ericourt played a memorable all-Debussy recital as the guest artist for the UNCG Focus on Piano Literature symposium.  His recordings of the complete piano music of Debussy were reissued on the Ivory Classics label in 2003 to honor the centenary of his birth. \n\n\n\nThe Ericourt Residency was founded in 2007 through a gift from Mr. Bill Heins\, a friend of Daniel Ericourt and a cousin of Mr. Ericourt’s widow Jayne Winfield Ericourt. Jayne continues to be a beloved presence at many School of Music keyboard events. \n\n\n\nSince its founding in 2007\, the Ericourt Residency has brought these renowned artists to UNCG:   José Feghali\, Jon Nakamatsu\, Jacques Després\, Pascal Rogé\, David Owen Norris\, Charles Richard-Hamelin\, Daria Rabotkina\, Craig Sheppard\, Lydia Artymiw\, and Sara Davis Buechner.
