The Piano Music Of Anthony Burgess

RICHARD CASEY

Anthony Burgess (1917-1993) has an impressive list of titles on his resume- novelist, poet, playwright, composer, linguist, translator, and critic to name just a few. He is best known for his novel A Clockwork Orange. While the writing talents of Anthony Burgess are frequently examined, his career as a composer is far less known. This album of Burgess’s piano music was recorded on the composer’s own grand piano, and the works here have never before been recorded. “Throughout his life, Burgess composed hundreds of musical works, including symphonies, chamber music and a Broadway musical. This collection of pieces for solo piano has never been heard in public or recorded before. The new album celebrates the extraordinary musical achievement of Anthony Burgess.” (Andrew Biswell, Director of the International Anthony Burgess Foundation)
