Simon Holt - A Book of Colours

Simon Holt - A Book of Colours
ID: NMCD128
CDs: 1
Type: CD
Collection:
Instrumental
Subcollection: Piano

Over the last three years Holt has revised all of his older piano works, written several new works, and collected a number of them together. He now plans to take a break from piano music for the next few years, while he concentrates on orchestral and music theatre works.
All the works on this disc are premiere recordings.
Rolf Hind’s recording of Holt’s only piano concerto - eco-pavan for piano and ensemble - is on NMCD094 Although Simon Holt is perhaps best known for his ensemble music-notably the NMC CDs by the Nash Ensemble and BCMG-he often refers to himself primarily as a piano composer.
An accomplished keyboard player himself, Holt considers the fourteen piano works written between 1980 and 2005 to be the very core of his output, and perhaps the works closest to his heart.
This CD of his piano music is an important document of his work.
