Description:

Ierland's early style was influenced by Brahms and Dvorak. He eventually incorporated English folk songs into his own compositions, but after becoming acquainted with Impressionist music, he developed his own style and moved away from folk songs. This third collection includes several first recordings and unfinished works (supplemented by his friends), and provides an insight into Ierland's style. Naxos Japan
