    Extractions: Piston, Walter Hamor Influential American composer, who was chiefly a composer of orchestral and chamber works and often wrote for unusual combinations of instruments. He was born in Rockland, Maine. In Paris he came under the influence of Russian-born composer Igor Stravinsky . Piston taught music at Harvard from 1926 to 1960. His compositions exhibit rigorously logical formal structure and radical harmonies, often approaching the limits of tonality. Among his compositions are eight symphonies, a ballet, concertos for violin and for viola, and chamber music, including string quartets. Two of his symphonies (no. 3 and no. 7) won Pulitzer Prizes.

    Extractions: Crotchet AmazonUK AmazonUS Though his music is not particularly well-known on this side of the Atlantic, Walter Piston (1895-1976) is one of the most highly regarded American composers of the twentieth century; he was also a distinguished teacher, his studies on such matters as orchestration and counterpoint becoming standard works of reference. It appears that he was an unusually methodical composer who rarely found it necessary to revise anything he had written. The pieces on this disc - presenting a substantial overview of his chamber music - were featured at the ninth Annual Townsville Festival of Chamber Music in Australia, at which time they were recorded. From them Piston emerges as a composer with a very strong identity. His language is sometimes pushed to the very edges of tonality, but overall stays within the bounds of conventional key-signatures yet without ever lapsing into blandness. Another striking feature of his music is that it has the sort of contrapuntal logic and inevitability we associate with that of J S Bach; and he was clearly a master of the intimate instrumental dialogues which characterise the greatest chamber music.

    Extractions: Born in 1894 in Rockland, Maine, Walter Piston was recognized in his lifetime as the ultimate musical craftsman, producing a body of orchestral and chamber work distinguished by its quintessential neo-classic qualities of clarity and proportion. Also a noted educator, Piston taught at Harvard from 1926 to 1960 and wrote three significant music textbooks: Harmony (1941), C ounterpoint (1947), and Orchestration (1955). Among Piston's many noted students were Elliott Carter Leonard Bernstein , and Arthur Berger. Following graduation from Harvard in 1924, Piston traveled to Paris for studies with Nadia Boulanger and Paul Dukas. There he became enamored of French neo-classicism and the later works of Faure and Roussel A musical climate celebrating a revival of J.S. Bach and the discovery of jazz infiltrated his work. Returning to the United States, Piston developed a sophisticated and witty compositional style, capturing with precise accuracy the many cultural and philosophic trappings of his native New England. His Symphonies ns. 3 and 7 earned him Pulitzers and works like the ballet suite The Incredible Flutist and Three New England Sketches brought popular success and renown for a musical style that struck a perfect balance between form and expression.

Recorded in conjunction with the 1999 Australian Festival of Chamber Music. Naxos 8.559071 (69'44). The music of Walter Piston (1894-1976) inhabits the same world as the novels of John Updike or the poems of Robert Lowell: genteel, mannered, restrained and technically proficient. It is, perhaps, a New England quality. More surprising is that those very qualities are so well conveyed in these performances from an international group of players at a music festival in Queensland, Australia, literally the other end of the world. Two of the works, the Quintet for Flute and String Quartet (1942) and the Piano Quintet (1949), date from the period when Piston was engaged in writing his classic textbooks Harmony (1944) and Counterpoint (1947), both of which remain in print.
