Pamela Nash also writes: “Kowalik’s execution throughout these six pieces allows the prevailing rhythmic characters and gestures time to breathe… The sixth and final Invention, played with compelling control, is a sublime example of the composer’s brillante writing.”

“Both composers have found a most worthy advocate in Katarzyna Kowalik, who gives the first recorded performances of all four works.”

✨Delighted to share this wonderful review from Harpsichord&Fortepiano magazine of my CD 💿 Inventions: Contemporary Music for Harpsichord, recorded with Prima Facie, featuring works by Stephen Dodgson and Elizabeth Maconchy. Many thanks to Pamela Nash for such thoughtful words.

This is actually hilarious. Score based on real mistakes of over 40 pianists. I totally made some of those, it’s amazing how universal some mistakes are! Now, here you have a list of the possible mistakes, does it prevent you from making them? #KnockTurn #LoveYourMistake

What I love about the unmeasured preludes is the freedom they offer and countless invitations to explore time and space in music through ‘clouds’ of harmonies, ambiguous gestures and improvisatory character.
