According to the label, this is the first time all of them have been released, so fans are in for a treat. The \"Symphony of Colors\" is Bliss's masterpiece. The \"Piano Concerto\" was inspired by the performances of young people he met when he was a member of the piano jury at the Isaï Competition (now the Elisabeth Competition), and was written as a commission for the New York World's Fair (1939). The march \"Phoenix\" is dedicated to France during the Second World War. Heroes of the Morning\" is a magnificent oratorio written in memory of Bliss's own service experience in World War I and of his brother and other war dead. The \"Concerto for Two Pianos\" is a version arranged for two pianos and three hands for a pianist who once gave up his professional career due to paralysis in his left hand. The \"Mere Fantasy,\" composed in memory of a designer friend who died young, weaves together theatrical flourishes and a sense of loss. The style is influenced by the Ballets Russes and is positioned as the forerunner of Bliss's series of ballet music creations.\n\nNaxos Japan\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Somm Recordings","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51435788665121,"sku":"4589538823023","price":2000.0,"currency_code":"PHP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/4589538823023.jpg?v=1751292633","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/en-ph\/products\/4589538823023","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
