Stephen Hough: The Erato Years 1987-1998

Description

Certain of the most dazzling recordings by pianist Stephen Hough date back to the time when he recorded his first discs for EMI and Virgin Classics. They offer a faithful reflection of his impeccable style, intellectual and musical rigor, and his taste for the short virtuosic pieces favored in the salons of the late 19th century and abundantly recorded by the pianists of the golden age of 78s. His two Liszt albums show Stephen Hough very much in his element: he dispenses rich colors of atmospheres, garlands of sparkling notes, brings out and magnifies the dramatic force of these works. From Mozart to Schumann, from Brahms to Britten, paying tribute to the tradition of great virtuosos while innovating with arrangements of his own, Stephen Hough delivers in these early recordings the fascinating portrait of a young artist whose brilliant intellect and appetite for creativity remain unmatched today. This 9CD + booklet box set celebrates the 60th anniversary of the English pianist.
