Product-Information:
This disc, which is very close to Stephen Hough's heart, should be thought of as an addition to his very successful series of 'Piano Albums'. In fact this recital started off with material left over from his New Piano Album (CDA67043).
The disc is a tribute to the English school of piano composition—mostly a 20th-century phenomenon, and the material is very much a personal selection rather than an encyclopaedic overview. The mood is predominantly lyrical and nostalgic (perhaps very English phenomena), and most of the pieces are very much the kind Stephen might present as encores. There is some serious 'meat' though in the form of Leighton's Study Variations. These are a major addition to the piano repertoire and add to the growing recognition, some fourteen years after his death, that in Kenneth Leighton we have a major composer indeed.
Rezensionen
'Another winner from the ever-imaginative Stephen Hough. In all these pieces Hough's magic is presented in full, clear Hyperion sound' (Gramophone)
'Powerful, sympathetic and beautifully recorded, and his fans everywhere will be thrilled' (BBC Music Magazine)
'Hough's performances are magical – scintillating, refined, sensuous in the smaller works, commanding and powerful in Rawsthorne and Leighton. I hope this superb pianist records many more recitals of British music' (American Record Guide)
'Hough’s pianism is a constant source of wonder – every chord and phrase perfectly judged' (Classic FM Magazine)
Rezensionen
M. Stenger in FonoForum 10/02: "Mit seinem "English Piano Album" liefert er ein Plädoyer für die Klavier- musik seiner Heimat, die man aus der Sicht des Kontinents allzu rasch als nur epigonal abtut und die man hierzu- lande in wichtigen Kapiteln vermutlich gar nicht profund genug kennt. Die stilsicher und im Klang so schattiert erfasste Sammlung erhebt keinen Anspruch auf enzyklopä- dische Vermittlung, ist keine tönende Musikgeschichte. Es geht um Momentaufnahmen."- Tracklisting
