Resound: Music By British Composers Carwithen/Maconchy/Alwyn/...

Between pastoral lyricism and modernist edge lies another, richly compelling story of twentieth-century British music. This programme brings together four distinctive voices – Ruth Gipps, Doreen Carwithen, William Alwyn and Elizabeth Maconchy – whose works chart an alternative path through an era often defined by aesthetic conflict. Featuring soloists Alex Mitchell (viola), Alexandra Dariescu (piano) and Rachael Clegg (cor anglais), with Manchester Camerata under the inspired direction of John Andrews, these performances illuminate music of remarkable individuality and emotional range. From Gipps’ Jane Grey and Carwithen’s long-neglected Piano Concerto to Alwyn’s Autumn Legend and the searching power of Maconchy’s Life Story, this album reveals a British musical landscape far richer, more adventurous and more rewarding than received histories have long suggested.
