This recital consists of works by four New York-based composers—all
writing in their thirties—which stride across the century from 1930 to
1991. Although all four composers are probably better known for works using
other instrumental combinations, these piano pieces were of crucial, even
seminal importance in their development and show them at the height of their
powers—their voices fully 'broken'.

Although none of them professional pianists, they write for the instrument with
consummate insight and invention. Notwithstanding their modernity, there is
always a respect for the piano here: an understanding of its tradition, a love
for its sonority.
