  • Description

    Duncan Honeybourne's new disc for EM Records explores the piano music of a forgotten romantic composer-pianist, Archy Rosenthal. This larger-than-life character wrote for his instrument with telling individuality, melting tenderness and searing intensity. Dublin-born Rosenthal was a virtuoso pianist of international fame, a pupil of Leschetizky and Godowsky and a close friend of Grieg. The land of his birth never lost its enchantment for this immensely charismatic and imaginative man, and our new release complements Rosenthal's barnstorming Variations on 'Hush-a-bye Baby' and his reflective 'Irish Pastels' with beguiling Hibernian musings by Stanford and Bax. All the works by Rosenthal receive here their World Première recordings.
