Out of stock

A major solo statement, Al-Khwarizmi Variations traverses the history and the physicality of the piano.
Working both inside and outside the instrument's body, at times playing with recognisable musical material, at others going deep into sonic abstraction, Pat Thomas presents a compelling vision of what the piano can do in the 21st century.
Extremes entwine in his playing: solidity and flow; seriousness and laughter; uproar and imperturbability.
