A survey of the instrumental work of Piers Hellawell - the Hebridean and Belfast-based composer, played by two dynamic ensembles at the forefront of contemporary music performance. Hellawell's music has been influenced by two contrasting sources - Irish traditional music and Balinese Gamelan. Features Psappha and the BT Scottish Ensemble.
'Central to this engrossing, extremely well-played survey of the last decade is the Sound Carvings trilogy: music of vivid colours, imaginative juxtapositions and elaborations' (BBC Music Magazine, 1998) |
