Canadian pianist composer Stewart Goodyear has been making discs for 25 years, but has only recently come to the notice of the Australian record-buying public. First there was a recreation of his compatriot Glenn Gould’s debut recital, followed by his delightful piano arrangement of Tchaikovsky’s Nutcracker ballet and a cracking set of the complete Beethoven sonatas.
