About

Acclaimed Irish pianist Michael McHale’s debut solo album features a delightful selection of piano miniatures inspired by Ireland’s rich musical heritage. The Irish Piano explores the influence of both Irish traditional and European classical music on this county’s composers and musicians.

" [McHale] finds a range of keyboard colours [in these works], making their individual sound-worlds seem unexpectedly subtle and rich…"– BBC Music Magazine

"…elegant sensibility, and bright, even-fingered articulation that was instantly engaging…" - Hilary Finch, The Times

"…all of the music comes to life through the singing sensibility of McHale's sensitive and polished pianism, captured in a warmly ambient recording. In short, it's easy to recommend such a highly distinct and imaginatively presented release…" - Gramophone
