SUMMARY:Leon McCawley Recital
DESCRIPTION:“One of today’s most impeccably musical pianists.” International Piano\, January/February 2021 \nPraised for his unfailingly communicative playing\, British pianist Leon McCawley has been delighting audiences worldwide since winning\, in 1993\, First Prize in the International Beethoven Piano Competition in Vienna and Second Prize at the Leeds International Piano Competition. His many concert performances and extensive discography have established him as a pianist of great integrity and variety\, bringing freshness and vitality to Classical\, Romantic and 20th century repertoire. McCawley’s latest CD of Haydn Sonatas Volume IV for SOMM Recordings is no exception: “There is real freshness to McCawley’s playing throughout\, concomitant with a sense of Haydn’s delight in playing with form. Captured in superb sound\, this is one of McCawley’s finest discs to date”. (International Piano\, December 2021). \nMozart: Sonata in G major K283 \nFanny Mendelssohn: Notturno in G minor H337 \nFauré: Nocturne No. 4 in E flat major Op. 36 \nBeethoven: Sonata in C major Op. 2 No. 3 \n \n© Clive Barda \n
