Alan Feinberg (piano)About
Alan Feinberg’s 'Basically Bull' is the first-ever performance of these works performed on a modern concert grand piano - in this case a Steinway Model D.
The music comes from the Elizabethan period (late 16th/early 17th centuries) and essentially represents the earliest virtuoso keyboard works written. The virtuosic demands and deep passion of the music is astonishing. These are bold, adventurous, and pioneering works composed before the laws of tonality were codified. Of all the great English composers of this period, it is John Bull who stands out as the most maniacal keyboard virtuoso.
"While others provided popular tunes and simple dances for the new instrument called the “virginal,” John Bull offered up experimental, challenging works, pieces that exuberantly overstepped conventional musical expectations. Fashioning a group of these works to function in concert and translating them to the wildly different timbre of the modern piano has been an exciting venture into the 16th and 17th century avant-garde. Bull’s music is brimming with invention and inspiration, power and passion." – Alan Feinberg
Alan Feinberg has received four Grammy nominations and has been widely acclaimed for his musical versatility, stylistic breadth of repertoire, and innovative programming. This is his debut release on the Steinway & Sons label.
