Williamson - Colour and Light: 20th-Century British Piano Music

Following Great American Sonatas, his admired debut on SOMM RECORDINGS, pianist Nathan Williamson turns to British piano music of the 20th century in Colour and Light, a revealing exploration of how the past influences the present and the new .A century-spanning programme from Delius�s quixotic 1887 Nocturne (more familiar as An Nacht, the Florida Suite�s finale, here in Robert Threlfall�s 1986 transcription) to Anthony Herschel Hill�s combustible Toccata of 1985 also lights on three other distinctive but highly contrasted composers.
