Stephen Hough; The Halle; Mark Elder : Hough – Piano Concerto, Sonatina & Partita

The premiere recording of Stephen Hough’s piano concerto, recorded by the pianist with The Hall under Sir Mark Elder, makes its prompt appearance on vinyl. Its subtitle ‘The World of Yesterday’ deliberately places the work in a broader context of the pianist-virtuosi of yesteryear who composed and performed their own piano concertos as they toured the world.
