The brilliant Canadian pianist Leslie De’Ath’s complete survey of Cyril Scott’s piano music continues on CDLX 7183, which presents Scott’s many piano encores, compiled on two CDs for the price of one. Here De’Ath concentrates in the main on the music written between 1907 and 1918, together with some earlier pieces Scott wrote whilst he was a student, and popular pieces from the 1920s. The suites Summerland, Op. 54 (1907), Suite in the Old Style, Op. 71 No. 1 (1910), Trois Danses Tristes Op. 74 (1910), Impressions from the Jungle Book (1912), A Little Russian Suite (1916) and Old China (Vieux chine): Suite (1918) are crowned by compositions from the 1920s such as Spanish Dance.
