Abstract
This article explores the idea of orchestral imitation or evocation on the piano. Long an aspect of piano writing and performance, the mechanisms by which such suggestive effects are realised in composition, performance and reception are somewhat under-addressed in the literature, especially the academic literature. The article takes an approach which is partly historical, but also focussed on contemporary practice: starting from examples in Mozart and Alkan and Brendel's (1976) writing on Liszt, I finish with a short discussion of my own Concerto for Piano Solo (Homage to Alkan), published in 2015 and released on CD in 2017.
