  • Hello, very nice playing.

    I`ve got add a videoanswer with Scott`s famous Lotus Land. I hope you like it.

  • Thanks for your kind comment.  I have looked at your video and commented on it.

  • Hiya, I am really interested in hearing as much Cyril Scott as I can. Does anyone know if Hymn of Unity 1947 was ever recorded?

  • I don't think so - but I suspect that it may be recorded before too long, as there is increasing interest in his larger works, and the symphonies have been broadcast by the BBC.

  • oh wow, do you know when the symphonies were broadcast? perhaps I'll be able to get them I have a friend at the BBC!!

  • I ment to ask, regarding the opera The Alchemist, I wondered if you know where I can get the recordings?

    Perhaps also if you know the rough synopsis?

  • Thank you for these fine pieces of Cyril Scott. I have seen his name and music for years, but never played any of his works. Because of your postings, I have recently purchased some of his piano pieces and they are quite lovely.

  • Thanks - I hope you enjoy playing the pieces as much as I do.

  • Very pretty work--very nice legato phrasing.

    I envy you the chance to hear The Alchemist. I have seen the score but never had the chance to play any of it through. I keep hoping that with the renewed interest in his oeuvre, this will finally be properly mounted and recorded.

  • I have only heard excerpts (BBC studio recordings), but was most impressed.

  • That was very touching. Amazing that Scott started out as an Impressionist and ended up a full-blown Romantic. I would love to have this piece - and others like it - on a CD. Thank you!

  • I'm sure it has been recorded. I believe that Dutton (a UK label) are recording all Scott's piano works. I would say that he ended up a modernist rather than a Romantic. If you have the chance you should see if you can get to hear any of his opera 'The Alchemist'.

  • I have his "Early One Morning" for Piano and Orchestra - sort of English pastoral school - on LP - as well as the Piano Concertos 1 & 2. Concerto #1 is kind of modern, #2 is much more so.
