Howard Shelley (piano), Hilary Macnamara (piano)
CDA66130
Throughout his career, Howard Ferguson has been blessed with distinguished interpreters of his music: Myra Hess, Harold Samuel, Jascha Heifetz, and Kathleen Ferrier, for instance, whose devotion to it bears witness to its quality. And although composition forms the backbone of his work, Ferguson has made similar distinctive contributions to British musical life as a performer, teacher, and musicologist.
