Sir Stephen Hough picks favourite songs and tunes from around the world, re-imagining them for solo piano in deft new arrangements: acts of homage to the countries he has come to love over a lifetime of travelling and performing.

Stephen writes: ‘Postcards suggest many things for me: travel, of course, greetings sent across the seas, “wish you were here”; but also writing to someone from home, a few words often meaning more than they say.’

Mastered by Sidney Claire Meyer at Emil Berliner Studios, this 180g LP is part of Hyperion’s 2026 Vinyl Edition.
