A captivating anthology of British clarinet compositions curated and performed by versatile musician Ronald Woodley and pianist Andrew West. This collection explores British musical modernism, featuring both new and underappreciated pieces from the twentieth century by composers Elisabeth Lutyens, Angela Elizabeth Slater, Morris Pert, Christopher Fox, and Edward Cowie. Woodley’s deep-rooted fascination for the basset horn, inspired by Lutyens, drove him to rediscover the world of British musical modernism, revealing its complexities and dynamics.Notable compositions in the anthology include Elisabeth Lutyens’ “This Green Tide” for the basset horn, Angela Elizabeth Slater’s “Around the Darkening Sun” for bass clarinet and piano, Morris Pert’s “Luminos” for basset horn and piano, Christopher Fox’s “This has happened before” featuring multitracked bass clarinets, and Edward Cowie’s “Heather Jean Nocturnes” inspired by visual art. This collection is a valuable addition for clarinet enthusiasts and music lovers, shedding light on the lesser-known gems of British music and showcasing the power of artistic collaboration across mediums, offering a glimpse into the evolution of British music.TracksElisabeth LutyensThis Green Tide, Op. 103 (10:15)Angela Elizabeth SlaterAround the Darkening Sun* (5:25)Morris PertLuminos, Op. 16a (16:22)Christopher FoxThis has happened before (10:54)Elisabeth LutyensFive Little Pieces, Op. 14 No. 1* I.
