About

An Evening Hymn Is an album of clavier music by English composers of the 16th and 17th centuries recorded by Anton Batagov. The name of this pianist and composer is associated with minimalism and new re-readings of classical works. Although this music was intended for the harpsichord, Batagov plays it on a modern concert Steinway. He studied old treatises on this music, but following the rules he adds the spirit and practices of modern minimalism and rock music to his performance. In the days of old, a musician could approach musical scores with a high degree of discretion. Performance was co-creation. The same happens in today’s non-academic music. Batagov links these two worlds. He deliberately matches himself against 'authentists' – the 21st century performers and listeners cannot perceive this music the way it was perceived by those who composed, performed and listened to it four of five centuries ago. 'Even the hands that play the piano are not the ones that played the old keyboard instruments', the musician says.
