Alexander Soares: Tippett/Beethoven/Knussen

PRODUKTBESCHREIBUNGEN
Alexander Soares embarks on a traversal of the four Tippet Piano Sonatas, and programmes them with music by composers who influenced Tippett, and a composer who he, in turn, influenced. On this album, the 2nd and 4th sonatas are programmed with Beethoven and Knussen. Soares’ previous albums include the epic piano sonata by Frank Bridge, the Berg Sonata, and the rarely performed Variations by Britten. His debut album ‘Notations & Sketches’ programmed Boulez, Messiaen and Dutilleux. Gramophone magazine said of this album "Although most of these pieces have been collated on various anthologies of French piano music, few of them can match this new release in its balanced conception or consistency of execution…. resulting in what could hardly be a more auspicious debut album."
