Monsoon Toccata by Anthony Gilbert. 3'33; for solo piano. In memoriam Janet Owen Thomas (1961-2002). In 1988, Janet Owen Thomas met up with me in Sydney at the end of a short organ-recital tour - possibly her last before devoting herself entirely to composing. We returned to England together, doing a rapid circular tour of Northern India on the way. Alighting from the plane at Delhi we were hit by the whirling wind and torrential rain of the seasonal monsoon, and early the following morning there was also a minor earthquake. This experience determined the spirit of the music, and Northern Indian Raga determines the purely technical approach, with thequasi-improvisatory toccatalike textures acting as decoration to a slow-moving, widely-spaced modal top line which almost loses control of the overall shape at the mid-point - a reflection of the impact of those natural phenomena.

Solo Piano III complète la trilogie des albums Solo Piano.Comme tout acte final, y figurent des complications et des conséquences auxquelles succède l’urgence de franchir la ligne d’arrivée. Et comme ses prédécesseurs, l’album s’achève sur un happy end en do majeur mais le chemin est ponctué de plus de dissonances, de tension et d'ambiguïté.Solo Piano (2004) est sorti à une époque plus innocente, où Chilly Gonzales faisait figure de pionnier dans l’évocation des genres classique et jazz sur le déclin, pour les pousser à cor et à cri dans le 21ème siècle. Cet album à la virtuosité fortuite a surpris tout le monde, y compris le génie musical autoproclamé.Solo Piano II (2012) est apparu tel un petit chef-d'oeuvre pop pour un monde connecté, une transition vers une nouvelle réalité. Devenu showman légendaire et collaborateur d’artistes renommés et estimés (Drake, Daft Punk, Feist) Chilly Gonzales y dévoilait une collection de morceaux accrocheurs et raffinés, visant à plaire, montrant qu’il était prêt pour le prime time.Ce second opus a assurément satisfait un public grandissant et toujours plus avide des miniatures imparfaitement parfaites de Gonzo.Solo Piano III surgit à un point d’inflexion plus problématique.Les collaborations se poursuivent (Room 29 avec Jarvis Cocker, Ibeyi, Toddla T...) mais Chilly Gonzales ne cherche plus à plaire. A présent, il laisse les fausses notes. Les mystérieux accords et les structures singulières deviennent addictifs et finissent par résonner de façon inéluctable. La première édition du Gonzervatory, école de musique éphémère vient de s’achever et le professeur est redevenu l’étudiant qu’il a toujours été et sera toujours, n’ayant aucune crainte de laisser la musique parler pour elle-même.La pureté musicale de Solo Piano III n'est pas un antidote à notre époque, elle reflète toute la beauté et la laideur qui nous entoure.Ce recueil de partitions rassemble une sélection de 9 pièces de l'album fidèlement transcrites. Ces transcriptions révéleront pour beaucoup une fine mécanique musicale souvent trompeuse ou même invisible à l'écoute. Leur édition a exigé de faire des choix, le premier étant de proposer aux pianistes des partitions aussi confortables que possible.En bonus, les partitions de 2 titres extraits de l'album Chambers, une respiration Solitaire et un happy end Cello ni majeur, ni mineur, mais en mode à 2 (Duo Piano / Violoncelle).

IMPROMPTU FOR PIANO by Marc Douyon is an intriguing and vibrant composition. Its rapid notes, relaxed rhythm, and quick tempo changes, contribute to the improvisatory character that permeates the work. The interplay of the different melodic ideas and motives, key changes, rhythmic figures, and the extensive range of the composition create a sense of purpose and direction.

Ann-Elise Hannikainen (1946-2012) was born in Hanko, Southern Finland, but lived mainly abroad, her father working as diplomat. Her grandfather's father was P.J. Hannikainen, the head of a prominent Finnish musical family. Ann-Elise's attraction to music was first found at age of five, when her family, then living in Warsaw, bought a grand piano. Hannikainen started to study piano playing at the Sibelius Academy in 1967, but rheumatoid arthritis prevented her from pursuing a carrier as a concert pianist. In 1972 she moved to Madrid and started to study composition with Ernesto Halffter Ercriche, a student of Manuel de Falla. Hannikainen advanced quickly in her career, and her piano concerto was premiered in Helsinki Festival in 1976. Her composing style evolved into luminous melodies, free atonal harmonies and improvisatory forms. Hannikainen wrote the two piano pieces Pensamientos 1974 (1974) and Toccata-fantasia (1975) in El Escorial. The first one carries features typical for piano writing of the Late Romantic, whereas the playful and improvisatory Toccata-fantasia gives a neoclassical impression.

Preludes Inegales, is named after an improvisatory group of which Butler is a member. It explores ways in which improvised material can be worked on in more formal compositional ways. Butler then improvises again on the composed material, 'composing' again - and so on, resulting in this characterful set of preludes for solo piano.

For Piano.By Vladimir NikolovFlashes is a collection of twelve miniature pieces for solo piano, composed in several stages over a long period of time.Each one of these pieces illustrates an independent story and mood and is written with a different approach to the piano. All of the stories are products of instant moments of creativity that gradually became depictions of everyday life events, places and revelations that occurred during the process of writing. Many times this process became the story itself, thus the source of light evolved into its own reflection.Styles vary from classical, post-impressionist to jazz and minimal through organic compositional structure.Titles Include:First Etude for PianoSun - trine - MoonLast Etude for PianoDistanceBit BangWednesday AfternoonGameSkopjeReflection...(on Caress)Prelude to Still LifeThe Third Day'Round Midday.
