John McCabe (piano)About
The works presented on this CD, carefully chosen by McCabe for his last public recital, given at the Presteigne Festival, include music by Schubert and Ravel as well as a work of his own and two pieces by younger contemporaries.
The two new works – by John Casken and Emily Howard – are first recordings. The CD also contains the first recording of the substantial Tenebrae by the composer himself.
John McCabe was born in Liverpool on 21 April 1939 to a family of Irish-Scottish and German-Finnish descent, although his outlook has always remained decidedly English. His output includes nine symphonies and a substantial body of music for his own instrument, the piano.
