The quotation is from Daniel Mason’s 2002 novel The Piano Tuner, which itself is quoting the Oxford English Dictionary. In 2004, Nigel Osborne completed an opera based on Mason’s book, which also provided the basic material for his piano trio recorded here.

This chain of works on a common theme – itself in a sense a fugue – begins with Mason’s story. Edgar Drake is the piano tuner, working in London in 1886. Out of nowhere, and in stark contrast to his regular round of gentleman’s clubs and the homes of the city’s upper classes, he receives a commission to tune a piano in Burma, recently annexed by the British Empire.The instrument belongs to the military doctor Anthony Carroll, eccentric but with an unmatchable record of maintaining the peace, who first demanded that the army bring an Erard grand for him into the Burmese jungle. After some reservations, Drake accepts the commission and travels deep into colonial south-east Asia.
