SPINE : Chamber works by Tansy Davies
BCMG, Azalea, Christopher Austin (conductor), Concordia, Samuel Boden (tenor), Joby Burgess (percussion), Simon Haram (saxophone), Darragh Morgan (violin), Huw Watkins (piano )
Including all three of Davies’ works for large ensemble: Iris, Falling Angel, and spine.
Other works include make black white, a reconstruction of Dowland’s ‘Flow, My Tears’ performed by the viol consort Concordia;
Dark Ground for percussion (Joby Burgess);
Loopholes and Lynchpins, a radical reworking of a Scarlatti sonata (Huw Watkins)
Plus two short songs: settings of poems by Nick Drake.
One of my favourite CD’s of British Music written by a woman composer.
