Linda Phillips (1899 - 2002)
19 piano solos composed, mostly previously unpublished.
The piano music of Linda Phillips reflects her character. It is energetic, encouraging for the performer and full of charisma, with clear and strong melodic lines. Many works reflect her cultural heritage and, though mostly composed diatonically, exploit Hebrew scales and Middle Eastern flavours.
Linda Phillips describes herself as moderately modern and similar to Samuel Barber in that it has a "between the wars lyricism".
Level of difficulty: advanced gradesMore comprehensive biographical notes are within the volume which also includes a CD of all the works.
