His 16th album with Signum Classics, the Welsh pianist, Llŷr Williams, brings a profound musical intelligence to his work as soloist, accompanist and chamber musician. His new album of compositions by Johannes Brahms offers a comprehensive exploration of Brahms’ introspective and expressive piano works. In addition the album features Variations on a theme by R Schumann, Op 9 – harking back to Williams’ celebrated album of works by Robert Schumann (SIGCD756) released in January 2024. ★★★★ “… the performances are always immaculate, their working out totally lucid; it’s unquestionably thoughtful, authoritative playing.” – The Guardian. Llŷr Williams’ long and successful collaboration with Signum Records includes the 8-disc box-set ‘A Schubert Journey’ (2020), the 12-volume ‘Beethoven Unbound’ (2018), a ‘Wagner Without Words’ double album (2014) and highlights from Liszt’s ‘Années de pèlerinage‘ (2012).
