About

Richard Danielpour is one of the most decorated, frequently performed and recorded composers of his generation. His commissions include works for some of the most celebrated artists of our day. Each of the Twelve Études is dedicated to a particular pianist with its own substantial technical demands, but all are conceived as concert pieces with a self-contained narrative. The variations in the Piano Fantasy are based on the final chorale of Bach’s St Matthew Passion. All of these world-premiere recordings were made in close collaboration between the composer and acclaimed pianist Stefano Greco.

Richard Danielpour’s Naxos catalogue boasts critical acclaim, including a Best Choral Performance Grammy for The Passion of Yeshua (855988586), recorded by the Buffalo Philharmonic Chorus and Orchestra, and UCLA Chamber Singers, conducted by JoAnn Falletta. Choir & Organ declared it ‘a fine recording of a substantial and powerful work’ (5 stars).
