Irish piano composer Diarmuid J Kennedy offers a moment of uncomplicated though not unnuanced listening on “In the field”, a piece for solo piano recently released as a single and billed as a “nocturne for piano”. The piano here has a rich and organic sound, much lighter than its billing suggests, with Kennedy finding hopeful moments among the cascading notes and tickling key changes. Kennedy’s classical training is given modern flair with a straightforward and minimalist composition coloured with mischievous and whimsical phrasings.
