The release of our Chopin recital disc coincides with Leon McCawley’s recital in the prestigious International Piano Series on the South Bank, Queen Elisabeth Hall, London on 1st December. His chosen programme includes works by Chopin, Barber and Brahms – composers whose works he is currently recording with SOMM.

Leon McCawley begins his Chopin recital with the sparkling Waltz Op. 64 No. 1 in D-flat major which has earned the sobriquet “The Minute Waltz”; this refers more to the nature of the work as a small miniature– it would certainly be madness to attempt it in one minute! This is followed by the three very brief but delicious Ecossaises Op. 72, composed when Chopin was 16 but not published until several years after his death.
