Chisholm’s understanding and mastery of the piano - he performed the Scottish premieres of Rachmaninov’s Third and Bartók’s First Concertos - is evident in his two concertos. The first, ‘Pěobaireachd’, literally ‘pipe music’ - that of the classical Highland bagpipes - uses these sinuous traditional themes to thrilling effect in a work that’s both exotic and lyrical.
The ‘Hindustani’ concerto was inspired by Chisholm’s posting to the Far East during the Second World War and friendship with Sorabji, and is based upon a series of ragas.
Hyperion rising star Danny Driver is the scintillating soloist alongside the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra and Rory Macdonald in these captivatingly original works.
