from Albany TROY1171

Hilary Demske gives beautiful performances of Martin's music for piano.

This selection of piano music by Henry Martin composed between 1980 and 2007 has a place within both the composers broader work and the literature for piano to which it makes a valuable contribution. Over the years, Martin has composed for chorus, orchestra, string quartet, various smaller ensembles, and solo instruments; but many of his works involve the piano, and about a score of them are for solo piano. All facets of Martins life (pianist, music theorist, educator) come through in this music that is so beautifully performed by the noted pianist Hilary Demske. The listener to these pieces can look forward to rewards for the heart as well as the mind.
