about

The all-instrumental album 'Music For Solo Piano' was originally recorded in 1982/83, and remains one of Steven Brown's best regarded works.

The solo pieces for piano and clarinet range from modern to classically-informed, while on several tracks Steven is joined by Tuxedomoon violinist Blaine L. Reininger. The bonus tracks include selections from Tuxedomoon's haunting 'Ghost Sonata', an 'opera without words' staged in Italy in 1982.

TWI 110

"Bewitching and melancholic" (Vinyl, 1984)

"Forceful and subversive. Brown has emerged as a leading force of the new music, which rejects the conventional separation of pop, classical and avant-garde" (Vox, 1991)

"There are sublime moments on Music for Solo Piano, which never panders to easy listening" (Melody Maker, 1988)
