Piano Fireworks from a young virtuoso, including a relatively unknown 20th century gem by Milosz Magin.

“I spoke with pianist and conductor Jeffrey Kahane after Ryan's legendary performance of Beethoven's 4th piano concerto at Ambassador Hall in Pasadena. Jeffrey Kahane told me he was deeply moved by Ryan's playing, and wrote later ‘I was enormously impressed and genuinely touched by the depth of Ryan McCullough s musicianship, the authenticity and sincerity of his musical voice and his burgeoning mastery of his chosen instrument'.

Whether Ryan remains a concert pianist or also becomes a conductor, I suspect this approach to his music will remain with him always. After the myriad galas, Ryan was invited to perform the opening night recital for the new Broad Stage concert hall in Santa Monica. He chose repertoire from this album for his concert program.” – Bob Attiyeh (producer)
