Llŷr Williams: Shostakovich Prelude & Fugues I

Shostakovich lived and worked under the iron fist of Communism, but no-one could chain his imagination and in his Preludes and Fugues for solo piano it runs free as never before. Over two concerts, RWCMD artist-in-association Llŷr Williams plays all 24 of these extraordinary mini-masterpieces – music that’s alive (in Williams’s own words) with 'a remarkable scope of colours and moods and a profound depth of emotion'.
