The experimental music of Howard Skempton has gained admirers of late, and those wishing to sample it would do well to check out this release by pianist William Howard, Skempton's primary piano champion. Skempton's music is hyper-concentrated but generally not dissonant and sometimes limpidly diatonic; someone once credited Skempton with "the emancipation of the consonance." The 24 Preludes and Fugues that open the program help to clarify what Skempton is doing. Despite the seemingly neoclassic or neo-Baroque title, Skempton reformulates the idea of the prelude and fugue. Each half of each piece, in total typically only about one minute long, lays out its basic material and then stops, sometimes quite suddenly, and it's as if the fugue merely presents a vertical arrangement of the tonal content of the prelude. The other three works, all collections of short pieces (the three Nocturnes are slightly more expansive), likewise refer back to established genres and tonalities but have an entirely fresh aspect. Howard has a clean, circumspect style that respects the quiet complexity of the music. A release that only grows more delightful on repeated hearings.
