Horizons (2006) more music like this

performed by Leif Ove Andsnes (piano)
composed by Alexander Scriabin, Bedrich Smetana, Charles Trenet, Claude Debussy, Cyril Scott, Dmitry Shostakovich, Edvard Grieg, Federico Mompou, Felix Mendelssohn, Ferruccio Busoni, Franz Liszt, Frédéric Chopin, George Antheil, Isaac Albéniz, Jacques Ibert

Titled Horizons and subtitled "A Personal Collection of Piano Encores," Leif Ove Andsnes' 2006 release can only make longtime fans of his playing ask three little questions: Andsnes? Encores? Really? A self-confessed "very serious young pianist" who played "only the most important repertoire," Andsnes had heretofore always seemed to be the ...

Cyril Scott: Complete Piano Music, Vol. 4: 1898-1963 (2007) more music like this

performed by Leslie De'Ath (piano)
composed by Cyril Scott

Composer Cyril Scott went to his grave believing his propensity in creating characteristic miniatures was his "undoing." Pianist Leslie De'Ath's retrospective of such short pieces, Cyril Scott: Complete Piano Music, Vol. 4 -- Piano Works 1898-1963 demonstrates that if such was the case, that it wasn't anything stemming from the quality of the ...

performed by Clare Howick (violin), Sophia Rahman (piano)
composed by Cyril Scott

Dutton's attention to neglected composer Cyril Scott turns to his music for violin and piano in this program by Clare Howick and Sophia Rahman. A few of the pieces were arranged from Scott's popular salon music for piano, but the larger ones he wrote specifically for violin and piano. The disc is anchored by the Sonata Lirica, a work that was not ...

Cyril Scott: Piano Concerto No. 1; Symphony No. 4; Early One Morning (2006) more music like this

performed by Howard Shelley (piano), BBC Philharmonic Orchestra, Martyn Brabbins (conductor)
composed by Cyril Scott

The May 1915 premiere of Cyril Scott's Piano Concerto No. 1, given by Thomas Beecham at Queen's Hall with the composer at the piano, represented the peak of Scott's career in "serious" music and, in the short term, the work proved influential among young composers in England. Little did the 35-year-old composer realize that he was entering into a ...

Cyril Scott: Piano Concertos 1 & 2; Early One Morning (2007) more music like this

performed by John Ogdon (piano), London Philharmonic Orchestra, Bernard Herrmann (conductor)
composed by Cyril Scott

In the early years of the twentieth century, composer Cyril Scott was briefly heralded as one of the brightest hopes for English music, but after the First World War, as public tastes shifted, his work fell out of favor with audiences, and it was only toward the end of the twentieth century that a critical reappraisal began. His music, which was ...

Cyril Scott: Violin Concerto; Festival Overture; Aubade; Three Symphonic Dances (2007) more music like this

performed by Olivier Charlier (violin), Sheffield Philharmonic Chorus (choir, chorus), BBC Philharmonic Orchestra, Martyn Brabbins (conductor)
composed by Cyril Scott

Compared with the uncounted tragedies of the First World War, the eclipsing of the career of English composer Cyril Scott may seem less than momentous. Yet he was a highly original fin de siècle English composer whose music was nevertheless suffused with the ardent yearning, passionate sensuality, and philosophical idealism of its time and ...

Cyril Scott: Symphony No. 1' Cello Concerto (2008) more music like this

performed by Paul Watkins (cello), BBC Philharmonic Orchestra, Martyn Brabbins (conductor)
composed by Cyril Scott

Cyril Scott is a find for dedicated fans of English fin de siècle music. Symphonies, concertos, chamber music, piano music; he wrote it all, and in an immediately ingratiating and instantly memorable style. Admired in its time both in England and on the Continent, Scott's music is more brilliantly colorful and more imaginatively varied than the ...

composed by Cyril Scott

Leslie De'Ath has taken up the banner for the music of Cyril Scott, which many feel is long overdue for unfurling again, with a series on Dutton of his piano music. It is easy to hear in the pieces on this first volume why Scott was called "The English Debussy." The extremely colorful, translucent harmonies he uses make his music entrancing, ...

composed by Cyril Scott

Despite what the French, Germans, and Italians may believe, England has produced great composers: Byrd, Tallis, Dowland, Purcell, Elgar, Vaughan Williams, and Britten are all indisputably great composers. But England, like the other great nations of Europe, has also had its share of deeply mediocre composers. The generation of English composers ...

The Mystic and the Muse: Piano Music of Cyril Scott and Roger Quilter (2004) more music like this

Neither Roger Quilter nor Cyril Scott achieved the worldwide celebrity of their colleague Percy Grainger; though their names may be familiar to specialists in early twentieth century British music, little of their piano music has been heard for many decades. The taste for fin de siècle reveries changed dramatically after World War I, and ...
