Quick Overview
CD Bax Piano Quintet G minor/Bridge Piano Quintet D minorProduct Details
Description
Recognised as rising stars of their generation, pianist Ashley Wass and the Tippett Quartet join forces to present two contrasting yet equally engaging British piano quintets. Conceived on a grand, expansive scale and influenced by Celtic music, with all manner of harmonic and instrumental colours exploited to super effect, Arnold Baxs Quintet is arguably a precursor of his later symphonies. Frank Bridges early work (19045, revised 1912) combines his admiration for the music of Faur with the highly integrated fantasy techniques he honed when composing music for the famous Cobbett Prize.
