Kenneth Leighton: Fantasia Contrappuntistica

Beskrivning

This `homage to Bach' was awarded the Feruccio Busoni prize when it was premiered by a very young Maurizio Pollini (just 14) in 1956. Considered as one of the main milestones in Leighton's piano music, in it the composer extends the Bach/Busoni legacy in a single movement of contrasting sections that build a constantly evolving structure, one that is powerfully cumulative and rigorously controlled.
