Spectrum 3 is a collection of 25 pieces for solo piano, commissioned in 2000 from composers from twenty-five different countries by Thalia Myers for the Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music (Publishing) Ltd and all receiving their recording premiere here.  Each composer was asked to write a three minute work and the musical mosaic which results from the collection gives a truly global window on the legacy of the piano in the 21st century. From Iceland to Singapore, the Lebanon to Sri Lanka via Russia the composers have distilled their musical personality into these miniatures.

"La mondialisation de l’enseignement musical et la multiplicité des destins individuels font de ce programme autre chose qu’une mosaïque de traditions disparates [...] L’interprétation de Thalia Myers est très éloquente et s’attache à mettre en valeur l'élément le plus saillant de chaque miniature."
(Monde de la Musique)

"This anthology should be as successful as its predecessors. Thalia Myers’ sensitive playing can only encourage ‘good amateur and student pianists’ to take these pieces up – and why not hardened professionals too."
