Cecil Coles piano music

[Martin Eastick]

James Willshire has just brought to my attention his exciting new CD of piano music by Cecil Coles, who some may remember from an earlier Hyperion release featuring orchestral works and songs. I am not sure whether or not this is his complete surviving piano music, but the piano sonata (incomplete?) certainly seems to promise much - and once again reminds us of the great loss to music in general suffered as a result of the 1914-18 conflict. https://www.delphianrecords.com/products/cecil-coles-gustav-holst-piano-music
