Agnes Tyrrel, the daughter of a British English teacher in Brno and his Czech spouse, did not have much time to put her creative talent into musical practice. She suffered from heart problems from a young age and was therefore unable to pursue an international career as a pianist. Thus, she dedicated herself to composition early on, which undoubtedly was not a pastime but a true calling. We already sense this in the first bars of the Impromptu, with which this detailed portrait of the artist begins. Here, someone boldly takes the stage without asking permission. This first, extremely flattering impression is followed by the beautifully radiant choruses, as well as her fantasias and her Grand Sonata. Ms. Tyrrel picks up the weaving that Chopin and Schumann left behind, spinning her own unique, colorful fabric.
