A life-long devotee of classical piano, Joop Celis offers this interpretation of the work of York Bowen and with it a much needed revival of the deeply moving, romantic composition of pre-World-War-One Britain with influences from Russia and France.

'The Dutch pianist Joop Celis proves an enthusiastic and highly virtuosic exponent of York Bowen and he offers a valuable anthology of his solo piano music... Fine realistic recording makes this a most desirable issue.' The Pengiun Guide - 1000 Greatest Classical Recordings 2011-12

'Celis (who was born in 1958) is, though, a thoroughly sympathetic advocate of Bowen's work (and writes enthusiastically about it in
the booklet note). His CD includes the first recording of the 15-minute Sonata No. 6, Bowen's last composition... Chandos's very clear recording... reveals Celis's playing as powerful and poised, nimble and sensitive.'
 International Record Review

'York Bowen Vol 3'

A lifetime spent perfecting meticulously honed technical skill and finesse is evident in Celis' recording of Bowen's compositions. The juxtaposition of delicacy and passion with which Celis is able to recreate Bowen's work is testament to both his own talent and the oft overlooked skill with which Bowen composed. In the time following the First World War, deeply romantic composition such as Bowen's fell into decline and now, Celis' is able to bring a much needed revival of the genre to a 21st century audience wih the enthusiasm of a true master.
