 BAX: Winter Legends; A Mountain Mood; A Hill Tune; Viola Sonata — Harriet Cohen, piano/ William Primrose, viola/ BBC ...
As much a social as a musical document, this disc attests to the artistic as well as romantic liaison between pianist Harriet Cohen (1985-1967) and composer Arnold Bax, who abandoned his wife and children to engage, during WWI, in an extended love affair with Tobias Matthay pupil Cohen, who was some thirteen years his junior.
After Cohen injured her right wrist in 1948, Bax wrote a left-hand concerto for her with which she enjoyed some success at the Proms concerts of the early 1950's.
For those unfamiliar with Harriet Cohen's musicianship, the scherzo is proof enough of her capacity for unbuttoned ensemble playing.
