Duo Praxedis - Thomas: Complete Duos for Harp & Piano, Vol. 1 (2020) [Hi-Res]


Harpist to Queen Victoria, the Welsh composer John Thomas (18261913) was also a prolific composer for his own instrument, writing works both for solo harp and for duos of two harps or harp and piano a combination where the different sounds of the two instruments enhances the clarity of the texture. Thomas original works use the elegant Romantic style of his own day, but he often drew on Welsh folksong for his inspiration and also left a generous legacy of transcriptions, especially of operatic favourites.
