A selection of works representing a musical journey from Baroque to late Romantic. The programme opens with the intricacy and clarity of Bach and Scarlatti, transitions through a number of contrasting works by Chopin, leading to one of the defining works of 20th century repertoire in Ravel's Gaspard de la nuit. The concluding nostalgic Rachmaninov Preludes provide a reflective coda. The UK Daily Telegraph described the recording of Gaspard de la nuit as “technically stunning and the highlight of the disc”.
