Description:

Stephen Hough's Recital Program! A "French album" of secret pieces and masterpieces! One of the most important pianists in the piano kingdom of Hyperion, along with Angela Hewitt and Marc-André Amrand. Stephen Hough, one of the most famous pianists in Britain today, presents an enchanting French program. Hough, a renowned composer and pianist, demonstrates his skills not only as a pianist but also as an arranger on this French album. In J.S. Bach's "Toccata and Fugue in D minor", which is a further development of the arrangement by the great French pianist Alfred Cortot, we can hear the true essence of "composer/pianist Stephen Hough".Unknown French gems full of surprises, such as Alkan's well-known secret "Song of the Madwoman by the Sea, Op. 31-8," whose dark and deep melancholy is highly favored by piano enthusiasts, and the music of great composers such as Fauré, Ravel, Debussy, and Poulenc. Stephen Hough's "French Album" is a tribute to the lyrical talent that flourished in France during the 19th and 20th centuries and to the musical mind of the great pianist. Tokyo M-Plus
