Our Edward Cowie Orchestral Works recording gets an honorable mention for MusicWeb International's Recordings of the Year from Richard Hanlon: http://bit.ly/33DyWOT
“More recently, a reissue of a much earlier Hyperion LP has finally (and most unexpectedly) turned up on CD after nearly 40 years, happily licensed to the ever-enterprising Métier label. It features two big concertos by Edward Cowie, an under-appreciated British master. The late Alan Hacker’s account of Cowie’s fascinating Clarinet Concerto No 2 is unmissable by any measure.”

Divine Art Recordings Group (Athene division) will be adding to its highly praised #GreatViolins series in the spring of 2021 with the fourth volume, featuring a ‘Brothers Amati’ instrument from 1629, played as usual by the virtuoso Peter Sheppard Skærved. In practice the violin was most likely produced by Girolamo Amati with his son Niccolò; Girolamo continued using the ‘Brothers’ label for many years even after the partnership with his brother Antonio had been dissolved with great rancour! https://divineartrecords.com/?p=16355

Works by two composers working at the University of Manchester in England: one American (Kevin Malone) and one British (Richard Whalley). These new works are all based on folk music: spirituals, protest songs, work ballads. They all reflect the instability of our current world and political systems, expressing concern about climate change, gun control (and the lack of), the neglect of the oppressed and the wilful deafness of ‘leaders’ to the real needs of the planet and its people. It’s not a ‘political’ album in any sense of partisanship but a reflection on how real progress can be destroyed by the power-brokers.

“For every note the guitar can play there are an infinite number of tone colors waiting to be coaxed from its body.” —Sam Cave - Guitarist and Composer This is demonstrated very well in this collection of very new works, which extend the tone palette of the guitar in many ways, from the still, almost mantra-like Refracted Meditation III by the performer, to complex and thickly-textured works by Fox and Murail, two distinctive sonatas by George Holloway and the almost alien soundworld conjured up by Horaţiu Rădulescu in the only work which introduces electronics (taped sounds) alongside the pure acoustics of the guitar. The contrast between Cave’s sparse, single line interspersed with gentle chords, and Murail’s transfer of spectral cluster technique, is exceptional. Available April 13, preview and pre-order this exciting new release by composer and guitarist Sam Cave today at https://divineartrecords.com/?p=12942
