Description:
British Piano Concertos by Various, released 10 October 2014.
This version of British Piano Concertos comes as a 4xCD. - GERALD FINZI, JOHN FOULDS, LENNOX BERKELEY A.O.
"British Piano Concertos" on CD presents a carefully curated selection of British piano concertos that span different stylistic phases of the 20th century and beyond. Instead of focusing on a single star soloist, this compilation highlights the breadth and diversity of the British concerto tradition: from lyrical, pastoral soundscapes to more modern, rhythmically driven works with bold orchestral colors. The listener encounters a wide spectrum of moods - intimate, song-like passages, sweeping romantic climaxes, and incisive, virtuosic writing that showcases the piano both as a singing voice and a percussive powerhouse within the orchestra. The program is ideal for anyone wanting to discover how British composers translated their unique musical language - often marked by clear tonal centers, folk-inspired melodies, and atmospheric orchestration - into the concerto genre. The stylistic variety makes this CD perfectly suited for focused listening as well as for repeated, immersive exploration. The label Lyrita is renowned among collectors and connoisseurs for its dedication to British classical music. Since its early days, Lyrita has specialized in high-quality recordings of often underrepresented British composers, helping to document and preserve a rich national repertoire that was long under-recorded. Characterized by audiophile sound quality, meticulous production values, and carefully chosen artists and orchestras, Lyrita releases have become a point of reference for many key works in British music. With "British Piano Concertos," Lyrita once again underlines its role as a curator of distinctive, carefully produced recordings that invite discovery and deepen appreciation for British orchestral and piano literature.
