Distinctive in his broad exploration of the viola's capabilities, Power's discography reflects an impressive diversity of periods and styles. His recent releases cover a vast landscape of compositions, from the lush Romantic works found on "Fin de siècle: Late Romantic Music for Viola & Piano" to the modernist tones of "MacMillan: Symphony No. 4 & Viola Concerto."
