Phillip Sear plays one of a set of seven preludes on 'all the intervals' published in 1930 by the British composer Alec Rowley (1892-1958). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ #3 from 'Seven Preludes on All the Intervals' (1930) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Alec Rowley (1892-1958) - who died while playing tennis - is best known today for his educational pieces and songs. His piano music is stylistically similar to that of York Bowen, but some also shows expressionist tendencies and is harmonically more sophisticated than Bowen's work. The modulations in some of these preludes happen at relatively dizzying speed, and it is quite challenging when playing them to present them in a coherent form to an audience. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------- Played by Phillip Sear http://www.psear.co.uk (Email: [email protected] WhatsApp: http://wa.me/441444483794 ) TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@pianogems
