About

Friedrich Gulda’s piano compositions combine notated music with large improvised sections, thus fusing the classical and jazz traditions. He was one of his generation’s most significant pianists and though his compositional output is relatively small, it is nevertheless significant. Variations on ‘Light My Fire’ is his tour de force virtuoso masterpiece whilst Play Piano Play beguilingly contrasts traditional classical procedure with many different jazz styles.

Awards and reviews

June 2018

Certainly Gulda wasn’t a raving jazz-pop original, yet the compositions featured on this release attest to his affection and respect for these idioms, along with clever intelligence and humour…Of the 10 short pieces comprising play piano Play, Nos 1 and 5 could easily be mistaken for early-1950s Dave Brubeck, while slower movements like No. 7 reveal Gulda’s gift for fashioning heartfelt ballads.
