Voices for Solo Piano: Smyth | Wallen | Alberga | Beamish | Yi

GLOBAL RELEASE DATE:
25 OCTOBER 2024

A pioneer of new concert formats, using music to communicate and bring people together, Hanni Liang was long sceptical about the traditional role of recording in progressing an artist’s career. It was her discovery of Ethel Smyth – both as a composer and as a person and a woman, fighting without compromise – that sparked the inspiration that led to Voices.

In this album she has created a programme that both champions women’s voices that, without the determination of Smyth and others like her, might otherwise have been silent, and allows her to raise her own voice, reflecting both her European birth and upbringing and her Chinese roots.
