Peter Maxwell Davies: "The Cloud" (1948); Marco Inchingolo, piano

Premiere on YouTube. "[...] 'The Cloud' has something of a Chopin nocturne about it, or more accurately perhaps, Liszt's Consolation No. 3: both are in D b major and feature a flowing left-hand quaver figuration and a cantabile righthand melody. There are, however, harmonic and melodic features of interest that liberate the piece from the confines of the nineteenth century, including the main 'cloud' melody (which starts in bar 5 on the off-beat E b). Here we witness a pentatonic collection (D b - E b - F - A b - B b), lending this passage a highly evocative impressionistic soundworld - wispy and elusive, like the cloud it is attempting musically to depict."
