Product details

The piano works of the largely self-taught Australian composer Raymond Hanson are unparalleled in 20th-century Australian music. Ranging over four decades they exemplify an iconoclastic spirit whose spontaneous writing is accompanied by a visionary wit and dynamism. This premier complete collection of Hanson's piano oeuvre includes the Piano Sonata, Op. 12-one of his greatest works, full of restless motoric rhythms and reflective contrasts-and many world première recordings, all performed by the award-winning pianist Tonya Lemoh.

Duration: 112 min.

Liner notes include biographical notes about the composer and performer, and programme notes.
