Product Description Best known for a series of works for solo instruments and orchestra including a highly successful concerto for his own instrument, the cello Haflii Hallgrmsson is also a master of the epigrammatic miniature. The piano music on this disc spans his career from 1963 to 2008, and the brilliant young pianist Simon Smith is a vital advocate of its varied colours, textures and resonances. Review THIS extensive disc of solo piano music by Haflidi Hallgrimsson reveals an unexpectedly mellow side to the Scots-based Icelandic composer. That's partly because such works as the charmingly elemental Sketches in Time are written for young players. Others, such as the Debussyesque Fley, are reworkings of early student sketches. But more generally, the young Northumbrian pianist Simon Smith captures in his distinguished playing a relaxed, human element in much of this music. Besides the sentimental charm of the Four Icelandic Folksongs, he brings empathy to the brittle angularity of Homage to Mondrian and intellectual rigour to the serially inspired Five Pieces. --Kenneth Walton, The Scotsman, 22 August 2008
