Piano Postcards (Uk) [LP]
Sir Stephen Hough's new solo piano album, Stephen Hough's Piano Postcards, explores the world from the perspective of the itinerant pianist sending home musical messages from his voyages. Music from Asia includes ""Spring breeze prelude"" by Taiwanese composer Deng Yu-Hsien and a piano version of ""Aka tombo,"" a children's song so beloved in Japan that it features in citywide ""5-o'clock chimes"" across the country. Folk and popular traditions appear in ""Cielito lindo"" and ""Nature boy,"" while the final group of pieces turns to nature, with works by MacDowell, Schumann and Sinding. Alongside these musical travel diaries, he intersperses new transcriptions of songs from popular films, including arrangements he created for Lang Lang's 'Disney Book' album. This is the first chance Sir Stephen has had to include piano arrangements of songs from Frozen, Coco and Mary Poppins.
