Posterity likes to play with labels that are supposed to characterize lesser-known composers: "The Catholic Bach" (Zelenka), "The Spanish Mozart" (Arriaga) - and "The English Rachmaninoff" with which the English pianist and composer York Bowen (1884-1961) was labeled. Nuron Mukumi presents his 24 Preludes op.102 here on PROSPERO. Indeed, one is immediately fascinated by this music, which is anything but a Rachmaninoff copy, but rather cultivates a style all of it's own. And one wonders: how could this music be so easily forgotten?
