Press reviews

‘a wonderful snapshot of music being written in Britain now. Better still, these pieces have been written for us to play’ CLASSICAL CD OF THE WEEK TheObserver 6/6/99 ‘Thalia Myers has done a service both to young or amateur pianists and to British composers in commissioning these short pieces whose level of difficulty is not prohibitive, but whose artistic seriousness is manifest.’ Sunday Times 13/6/99 ‘Thalia Myers plays all 50 Spectrum + Spectrum 2 pieces... Her sensitive phrasing and attention to detail give some of these little pieces a stature one might not suspect, and the recorded sound is exemplary. Teachers and their pupils will find both volumes and the CD indispensable.’ EPTA Piano Journal Summer 1999 ‘Altogether a fascinating anthology, with fine performances and recording.’ Gramophone October ‘99 ‘… The idea was marvellous: to commission short pieces from 50 prominent British composers… The results are everything pianist Thalia Myers could have desired and more… Hard or easy, these pieces are in sensitive hands with their organiser, Thalia Myers, who manages to make the tiniest pieces poetic.’ American Record Guide
