Distinguished pianist Antony Gray is an Australian who has
based himself in London for over 30 years. He has recorded for
ABC Classics for the last 20 years. Antony’s debut recording for
ABC Classics was in the early 1990s; the piano music of Sir
Eugene Goossens which was acclaimed for his ‘diligent and
captivating pianism surpasses all competition’ and ‘technical
assurance and expressivity are hugely impressive’. The other
notable release is Malcolm Williamson’s complete music for
solo piano, on which IRR notes Antony delivers ‘excellent
performances … dispatched with considerable technical and
artistic accomplishment. I cannot recommend this issue too
strongly.’
Williamson’s piano music is uncompromising and rarely speaks
the same musical language and this J.S Bach project is no
different. J.S Bach’s works are uncompromising and here
Antony Gray has compiled excerpts from over 60 of Bach’s
works; from note for note transcriptions through to liberal
offerings where the transcriber very much adds his/her style to
Bach’s original. The diversity of transcriptions here mark Gray’s
trademark intelligence, energy and atmospheric emotion as
musician and pianist.
