Digital Booklet

"... Toccata Classics label launches potentially one of its most important projects with this first volume devoted to the piano music of Harold Truscott ... a composer who expressed himself naturally in this medium, though there is nothing derivative or facile in his approach ... throughout the programme, Ian Hobson plays with a combination of accuracy and intensity ideal for this music ... the sound has commanding presence and clarity ... Truscott has a notable place in mid-20th century British music and this first volume of his piano music could not be more welcome."
- ClassicalSource.com
Harold Truscott enjoyed a reputation as one of Britain's most perceptive writers on music, a doughty champion of many neglected composers who have now become familiar figures. Truscott himself was a composer of some stature, writing in an individual style rooted in Beethoven and Schubert but also showing influences of Nielsen, Medtner and Hindemith. English pianist and conductor Ian Hobson presents this first album in a series showcasing Truscott's substantial oeuvre of piano music.
