Although André Tchaikowsky (1935–82), Polish-born but based in Britain, was one of the finest pianists of his era, his true calling was as a composer, and this first conspectus of his piano music, features the first recording of his powerful Piano Concerto (1973–75), the epigrammatic Inventions he dedicated to a series of friends, his only mature Piano Sonata and two dances for piano from an incomplete set of six – evidence of the magnitude of the loss from his early death from cancer, aged only 46.
