description
• On Wenlock Edge combines the best interpreter of English song with some of the most important pieces from the 20th century repertory. • Upon release the album stayed in the UK classical charts for six weeks in a row and was a Finalist at the 2008 Gramophone Awards. • Vaughan Williams, a tour de force of English song, set A.E. Housman’s On Wenlock Edge following a visit with Ravel in Paris. The French influence can be clearly heard in the distinctive piano quintet accompaniment - an innovation in English song. • This is the premiere recording of Gurney’s masterpiece Ludlow & Teme using the composer’s revised and corrected version which, after studying with Vaughan Williams, he declared to be his favourite: “the alterations are simple (and striking).” • Peter Warlock’s The Curlew and Arthur Bliss’s Elegiac Sonnet, completes this beautiful collection. • The Fitzwilliam String Quartet and pianist Anna Tilbrook display their substantial talents as accompanists providing flawless support and enhancing Gilchrist’s interpretation.
