This new album from renowned British pianist William Howard features sixteen world premiere recordings from composers such as Judith Weir, Nico Muhly and Arcade Fire's Richard Reed Parry. Entitled Sixteen Contemporary Love Songs, the album marks the next step in William's two-year Love Songs project, which explores the theme of love in romantic and contemporary piano music. William contacted leading composers around the world with a simple brief: to write a piece of music for solo piano that explores the theme of love. The resulting Sixteen Contemporary Love Songs celebrate love in all it's forms and provide a unique insight into the modern composer's response to the love song genre. William Howard enjoys a career that has taken him to over 40 different countries. His performing life consists of solo recitals, concerto performances, and guest appearances with chamber ensembles and instrumentalists. A soloist and chamber musician, he can be heard on over 40 albums. His recording of Dvorak works was selected in the Gramophone Critics' Choice, and his recording of Fibich's 'Moods, Impressions, and Souvenirs' won a Diapason D'Or award in France.
