Imogen Cooper: Nimbus Rediscovered Recordings
£10.99

Catalogue Number
NI7120
This recording was released on LP in 1977 but has never been reissued. Naturally Imogen has more to say now than she did in 1973, at just twenty-four years old. Yet there is already real poise and gravity in this playing. We offer this re-release in that spirit, acknowledging the inspirational career that followed, and wishing her continued success as she embarks on her farewell tour in 2026. © Adrian Farmer

Reviews:
“Just as Imogen Cooper brings her distinguished career to a close with Beethoven’s last three sonatas, the Nimbs label takes us to the other end of her journey in its series of rediscovered recordings. They tell us this might be Cooper’s first ever studio session, a 24 year-old making her first recordings of Beethoven and Schubert sonatas in 1973, composers that have been at the heart of Cooper’s artistry for half a century. Of course, she’s brought more maturity, introspection and experience to them subsequently, but these are remarkably poised and absorbing performances for one so young.” Andrew Mcgregor, BBC Music Magazine (July 2025)
