Ronald Stevenson was born in 1928 in Blackburn, Lancashire, of Scots descent. Stevenson's output includes over 300 songs and a large body of piano music, including the Passacaglia on DSCH, "surely one of the greatest works for piano, not merely in our own time" Wilfred Mellers. A leading authority on the music of Grainger and Busoni, he is regarded by many as the leading exponent of their piano music in out time.
This CD features Fugue on a Fragment of Chopin, A Scottish Triptych and Motus Perpetuus (?) Temporibus Fatalibus amongst others. Joseph Banowetz plays Stevenson's piano works.
