Featuring insightful arrangements of Richard Wagner’s operas by Franz Liszt and Glenn Gould (as well as Williams’ own arrangement of music from Parsifal), at the centre of the programme is a selection of Wagner’s own piano pieces – many of which were written earlier in his compositional career, hinting at the grand operatic masterworks which were yet to come.
"It’s technically superb; WiIliams is equal to the toughest challenges that Liszt presents, but always puts Wagner first …the colours WiIliams creates from the keyboard in Siegfried’s Rhine Journey and the Parsifal suite are radiant and entrancing." (The Guardian)
"The Welsh virtuoso’s idea of juxtaposing a selection of Wagner’s uneven piano works with transcriptions is pianophile catnip … An uplifting disc." (The Sunday Times)
"… a varied and rewarding programme enriched by Williams’s velvet touch, meticulous voicing, attention to detail and judiciously graded dynamics." (Gramophone)
"A highly stimulating album." (Northern Echo)
Llyr Williams, piano
