“A significant contribution to the development of the 20th/21st century piano sonata”

Geoffrey Allen was a major figure in Australian music until his death in 2021 at the age of 94. This set of his 18 Piano Sonatas is a major work of art in every sense, as the pianist makes clear:

“What is really interesting about Geoffrey’s music is that it looks orthodox on the page initially, but is in fact extremely thoughtprovoking. He has a unique way of combining the familiar with the unfamiliar: Geoffrey’s music is always extremely well crafted and looks deceptively simple on the page, but as soon as you begin to play any phrase from his works you discover that he is always subtly reinventing the wheel! There is subtle originality, extraordinary variety and colourful fascination in his prolific output for the instrument. The recordings…will unquestionably amount to a significant contribution to the development of the 20th/21st century piano sonata.”
