Piano Imagery - CD
By Miriam Hyde
Regular price
$30.00
Music composed by Miriam Hyde. Each of the 25 pieces on this double CD has been introduced and discussed by the composer followed by the performance by her. (Samples of her introductions are not listed here.) First recorded in 1986 and now released by Wirripang, available online.
The CDs provide a doubly-rare opportunity to hear a composer speak about and perform her own compositions. In her introduction to each piece she gives an insight into its inspiration (often Nature, something artistic, romantic English poems, or, as a thank-you for a kind gesture), its structure, types of pianistic devices and tips for performance.
Disc 2 contains her more advanced works.

Piano Music of Meta Overman, The CD
By Jeanell Carrigan
Regular price
$25.00
Jeanell Carrigan (piano)Described as Koningin van de Klankkleur en Fantasie [Queen of tone colour and fantasy], Dutch born composer, Meta Overman (1907-1993) spent most of her adult life in Perth, Western Australia. Her musical output was extensive and captured here on this CD is much of her piano works. The composer from an early age had the ability to transform pictures into sounds and this is evident in all her compositions. Jeanell Carrigan spent many months researching her piano works which resulted in four volumes scripted from Overman's manuscripts, and each with their own CD recording, and this stand-alone disc. The four volumes of scores are available online.
