Description
The world-famous Brodsky Quartet headline an outstanding array of performers ‘from a’ the airts’ in John Purser’s latest CD, Consider the Story, bringing an immaculate and powerful performance of his accomplished and moving String Quartet ‘Kalavrita’. The eclecticism is not confined to the performers, and on this latest offering you can never be sure what you will hear next. There’s a sonata for trombone and piano, two vocal works – including settings from Spenser’s Faerie Queene – Silver Reflections for cello and piano, as well as works for Māori musical instruments with bassoon, and Lament for a Chickadee for solo carillon.
John’s music has been described as “heartfelt, clear, rugged and peculiar”, and that is pretty much spot on.
