| | The original release of the Third Piano Sonata was Guilde Internationale du Disque SMS 2590, 1970, with Claude Helffer on piano. | | | Her exquisite playing is subtle and expressive, and the budget-priced disc contains all three of Boulez's groundbreaking piano sonatas. | | | The Third Piano Concerto also engendered a bit of controversy, and added to the antipathy between Cage and Boulez after their falling out. |

| | Grieg's piano music can be showy, but it never is gratuitously so; while it can be a showpiece for the performer, the music usually has other priorities. | | | Naxos has released four CDs of MacDowell's piano music in recordings by James Barbagallo. | | | This is true more of his two piano concertos than of his solo works, but those who listen to this pair of discs will meet both MacDowell the thundering crowd-pleaser and MacDowell the quiet poet and serious thinker. |

| | But although the sonata lasts more than half an hour, and makes the strongest demands of concentration on both performer and listener, it is directly and powerfully conceived for the instrument, and its sheer physical relish of the piano is matched by the composer's exuberant references to keyboard literature. | | | Recordings of almost all of Peter Maxwell Davies's works, as well as talks and interviews with the composer, are available for visitors to listen to at the National Sound Archive and British Music Information Centre in London. | | | In short, by implanting a series of tensions which impel the music constantly forward, the composer creates the illusion that the sonata arrives over the brow of the hill two movements later than the suite. |

| | That sounds like a work in the grand virtuoso piano concerto tradition, but there is nothing, apart from the broad shape of the music, borrowed from earlier warhorses - the music is spiky and Stravinskyesque, with marked rhythm and wide leaps and the orchestra being far more than a backdrop to the virtuosic piano part. | | | The other two works on the record are Bliss's piano sonata and a short concerto for two pianos, in which Donohoe is joined by Martin Roscoe in a very sympathetic, democratic and polished partnership. | | | Anyone with a tentative interest in the British Piano Concerto Foundation, under whose auspices this record is issued, might prefer to start with this disc than with its excellent predecessor the Rawsthorne concertos. |

| | It is also possible that the expansion of the bass register, so critical to solo violin music, may have influenced her piano writing. | | | The beautiful balance heard throughout many levels of the piano sonata brings an elegance of form which perfectly complements the concentrated, dramatic, virtuosic, and seemingly improvisitional quality of the piece. | | | Paul Wilson convincingly analyzes Bartok's Piano Sonata with several levels of pitch-class sets linked to levels of prolonged linear motion (*The Music of Bela Bartok*, 55-84). |

| | Szymanowski was one of the band of composers whose music flirted with modernism in the years around the time of the first world war and immediately afterwards. | | | Szymanowski began to explore that wider musical world for himself in several series of character pieces, including the two sets for piano from 1915 and 1916 on Anderszewski's disc, Métopes and Masques. | | | In many ways, though, it's Anderszewski's account of the least known piece here, the Third Piano Sonata, composed in 1917, that is the most remarkable. |

| | ArkivMusic Ives: Piano Sonata "concord Mass," Songs / Graham, Aimard |
| | Given Aimard's celebrated proficiency with difficult 20th-century solo piano works, it comes as no surprise that he makes the Concord Sonata's knottiest pages sound easy to play and clear to perceive--as in Hawthorne's lightning-quick runs, Ragtime-influenced passages, and mountains of chord clusters. | | | To answer the question as to why Ives did not write an opera is to investigate the songs, which are nothing if not mini-dramas for voice and piano. | | | They encompass some of Ives' most gorgeous, lyrical inspirations, like The Housatonic at Stockbridge, The Things our Fathers Loved, and Thoreau (the latter incorporates themes from the Sonata's final movement), as well as droll character pieces such as the two Memories, The Circus Band, and Ann Street. |
