Douglas Stevens (piano)About
Berkeley's music displays a wide variety of influences, from eighteenth-century Classicism through to the Romanticism of Fauré and Chopin, contemporary music of the early twentieth century and Britten. Yet these influences are never heard as a 'patchwork' - the remearkable individuality of Berkeley's style attests to the way these influences became amalgamated into a unique compositional approach.
Despite his relative obscurity Berkeley received many accolades in later life including a Knighthood and a papal Knighthood of St Gregory. A growing number of recordings of his music demonstrates a continuation of interest in his work and legacy.
The booklet contains detailed notes on each of the works on this recording from Douglas Stevens.
