About
Ronald Stevenson, still unknown to many outside the British Isles, is considered by several pianists as among one of the most important pianist-composers of the 20th Century. Following the tradition of many great pianists, Stevenson created piano transcriptions from the works of other composers and also wrote music in a variety of styles. This piano album by Peter Jablonski offers a compelling portrait of the Scottish piano master. The album includes four world premiere recordings.
