About this product
Canadian pianist, composer and seasoned recording artist Stewart Goodyear forges new territory with his upcoming album, combining masterful works for the piano by Schumann and Mendelssohn with two of Goodyear's very own. He is joined by the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra under the baton of Andrew Constantine. The album features two world premiere recordings of Goodyear's original works, exploring two very distinct thematic threads. The Rhapsody deals with themes of love and loss, considered by Goodyear to be Inchthe most intimate piece I have ever writtenInch. Elsewhere, the 'Introduction and Rondo Capriccioso' constitutes a composition written in the spirit of Mendelssohn but inspired by the rhythmic and metric vigour of Sub-Saharan Africa. The intensity of Schumann's Op.54 Concerto in A minor, together with the affection of Mendelssohn's Op.25 Concerto in G minor, complete this new collection as a tapestry of romanticism and romance.

In November 1949, at the age of eight, Idil Biret entered the studios of ORTF (Radiodiffusion Television Francaise) in Paris and made her first recordings; these were works by Couperin, Bach, Beethoven and Debussy. In the following decades she made nearly 100 albums, released on ten record labels (Pretoria, Vega, Decca, Atlantic/Finnadar, Pantheon, EMI, Naxos, Marco Polo, Alpha, BMP) and many recordings for radio and television stations around the world. These included the complete piano works of Brahms, Chopin and Rachmaninoff as well as the Sonatas of Boulez and the Etudes of Ligeti. The Idil Biret Archive (IBA) is now bringing together her past and present recording; as the copyrights are obtained, old recordings no longer available commercially are being released together with her new recordings. The present volume presents Beethoven's Diabelli Variations.
