CDWith Tenderness, With Fire / Ronald Farren-Price, piano
|
Product details
The solo recital has always occupied a special place in music, for we are taken in to the performer's confidence and invited to share their inner world. On a piano a recital can range from the delicate and the gentle to the stormy and the furious, for no other instrument approaches the piano in orchestral power, harmonic richness, or sheer variety of textures.
Ronald Farren-Price encores his hugely popular "Reflections" CD with this recital of music ranging from the sublime beauty of a Beethoven Adagio to the thundering splendour of Prokofiev's "Toccata".
