专辑简介
Ireland is one of those "one work" composers who actually wrote a goodly bit of music, but most if it in small forms. To the extent he's at all well known now, it's either for this piece or his film score to The Overlanders. In any case, this very attractive, slightly jazzy piano concerto is a more or less the English equivalent to Prokofiev's Third, and if you enjoy that work, or Gershwin, you'll want to hear this one. It's clearly the best English work of it's type to come from the interwar period, and Eric Parkin, a friend of the composer, plays it was well as anyone ever has. The other two works are colorful minor masterpieces. --David Hurwitz
