I’m very excited to give news of two releases on Nonesuch Records today: Après Fauré and After Bach II. These are both solo piano projects, and both engage in the music of those respective composers. Après Fauré includes four of Fauré’s Nocturnes for piano, alongside four pieces of my own which are inspired by his musical vision.
After Bach II continues from my previous record After Bach, with more music of my own, written or improvised, interspersed with Bach’s keyboard music. The liner notes for these records can be found here, and sheet music for my compositions can be found here. I will have the opportunity to perform these programs in some concerts coming up in the future, so please keep a look out on my tour schedule if you’re inclined.
Thank you for your interest! All the best, Brad
