Description:

Here comes a 4-CD box featuring a number of works by contemporary British composer Michael Finnissy, performed by Ian Paice. The core of the collection includes the complete “Verdi Transcriptions,” the composer’s second full-length recording after his own “English Country Tunes,” as well as works inspired by 18th- and 19th-century music. Pace has been performing Finnissy’s works since the 1990s, and presents an impressive interpretation based on a deep understanding of the music. This release heralds the composer’s 80th anniversary in 2026.Naxos Japan
