Our Take

Peter Seivewright's "American Piano Sonatas" is a whimsical journey through the sounds of the United States, as if taking a road trip with Gershwin, Copland, and Ives as your co-pilots. Seivewright's fingers dance across the keys with such finesse and charm, you can almost picture him wearing a cowboy hat and sipping on a milkshake at a retro diner.

The album opens with Samuel Barber's Sonata for Piano, a piece that is as hauntingly beautiful as it is technically demanding. Seivewright effortlessly captures the essence of this American masterpiece, bringing to life its melancholic melodies and rich harmonic textures.

Moving on to Aaron Copland's Piano Sonata, Seivewright's interpretation is nothing short of mesmerizing. He navigates the shifting rhythms and bold harmonies with ease, taking the listener on a wild ride through the vast expanse of the American landscape.

And finally, Charles Ives' Piano Sonata No. 2 rounds out this eclectic collection of American classics. Seivewright's performance is both daring and playful, capturing the quirky spirit of Ives' innovative compositions.

In conclusion, Peter Seivewright's "American Piano Sonatas" is a delightful romp through the annals of American music, showcasing the diverse and vibrant sounds of the land of the free and the home of the brave. Grab a slice of apple pie, sit back, and enjoy the musical journey that Seivewright has masterfully curated for our listening pleasure.
