Hamilton, a former student, friend and colleague of the composer, performs Stevenson”s music with ”understanding and brilliance”. Volume 2 features a riveting collection of Celtic pieces, including Stevenson”s complete Purcell transcriptions, and the first recording of the wonderfully witty Threepenny Sonatina, based on themes from Kurt Weill”s Threepenny Opera.
