1989 and 2015, about Russian pianist Sviatoslav Richter and

John Sykes (1909-1962) was a pianist, composer and schoolteacher. He gained his FRCO as a schoolboy and became Organ Scholar at Balliol College Oxford. Later, he studied with both Ralph Vaughan Williams and Gordon Jacob. He spent most of his career teaching music at Kingswood School, Bath. He left behind a good deal of music, but only a handful of works were published. This recording is of songs, solo piano works and a piano duo. The songs are largely settings from William Blake's Poems of Innocence and Experience, but there are also settings of poems by Sykes's friend and contemporary, Randall Swingler.
Coverage of the 14th Van Cliburn International Piano Competition
which took place over three weeks in 2013. The young competitors
must be at their best and not give in to the pressure as both their
musical skill and strength of character are put to the test.
