Par RAVEL MAURICE. Maurice Ravel broke new personal ground with his only piano trio, yet in a stroke of genius he created a work of the early 20th century that is outstanding in many respects and a key work of this genre. As one of his most rhythmically daring pieces, the four-movement trio fascinates with its asymmetrical rhythmic division and polymetrics, with Ravel possibly drawing on impressio…

Full Score. Par VINE CARL. Carl Vine's Piano Concerto No. 1 (1997) is one of three large-scale works composed with pianist Michael Kieran Harvey in mind - the others being his first two piano sonatas.  Its composer describes it as 'a conscious and continuous tribute to the Piano Concerto as a medium and historical entity', a fact most apparent in the slow movement, with its long melodic lines evok…
