Product-Information:
York Bowen ranks as one of the greatest virtuoso pianists England has seen. His vast output of piano compositions stands comparison with that of Rachmaninov and yet has remained largely neglected: he was a figure who wrote the the sort of music he loved – not the new 'trendy' music his own generation demanded.
"York Bowen is master of every kind of piano writing, which, great artist that he is, he uses not to the ends of trumpery and empty virtuoso affichage, but to the purposes of the powerful brilliant glowing and rich expression of a very individual beautiful and interesting musical thought … York Bowen is, at the present time, the one English composer whose work can justly be said to be that of a great Master of the instrument, as Rachmaninov was or as Medtner is." (Sorabji).
Rezensionen
‘York Bowen could have no more ardent or pianistically adroit advocate’ (Gramophone)
‘Buried English gold unearthed by a brilliant treasure hunter ... I can think of few other living pianists who … can play them with such persuasive advocacy and winning yet unforced charm’ (Classic CD)
'Few new discs of piano music match this for sheer magic: magnetic performances that come as a revelation. Vivid piano sound' (The Penguin Guide to Compact Discs)
‘Without doubt one of the most interesting and valuable piano releases of 1996 ... ideal vehicles for the superlative pianism of Mr. Hough ... the smaller preludes disclose the widest possible gamut of moods and colors and are couched in pianistic trappings of the first order ... Hough’s performances leave absolutely nothing to be desired’ (American Record Guide)
