Brian Ferneyhough - born in Coventry in 1943 and recipient of the prestigious Siemens Prize in 2007 - counts among the great musical challengers of our time. As an unyielding proponent of a steady refinement of musical perception he doesn't shy away from mind-boggling structural aggregations and extreme technical and artistic demands on his musicians. In doing so he enjoys the support of a handpicked group of virtuosos, who regularly bring to attention his compositions most successfully all over the world. One of the most prominent among those is pianist Nicolas Hodges, who with his colleague and friend Rolf Hind join for the first time to produce Ferneyhough's complete works for piano on 2 CDs. Between 1965 and 2013 altogether seven works for piano solo or piano duo emerged from the composer's studio, all of them strongly destined to captivate the listener's attention for complex musical adventures and regularly putting him into incredulous amazement.
