Howard Skempton: Preludes and Fugues/Nocturnes/Reflections/...: - Howard Skempton [CD] Breaks C'est Apollon Qui Descend EnWilliam Howard performs the solo piano music of Howard Skempton in a collection that includes Skempton's '24 Preludes and Fugues', inspired by J. S. Bach's example but in a contemporary style. Skempton's piano miniatures are concise, crystalline gems: clear, colourful and bright. There is a neoclassical quality to Skempton's 'Preludes and Fugues', which exude a serene, almost otherworldly atmosphere, tempered with a sense of intimacy and refinement.
