Product description

Delius: Brigg Fair & Sea Drift, released on 1 February 2014 by SOMM Recordings, is a captivating collection of works by the renowned British composer Frederick Delius. This album showcases a beautifully curated selection of Delius' most cherished pieces, including the sublime 'Brigg Fair: An English Rhapsody', the enchanting 'A Village Romeo and Juliet: The Walk to the Paradise Garden', and the poignant 'Sea Drift'.

With a duration of 1 hour and 14 minutes, this album takes you on a musical journey through the seasons, with 'North Country Sketches: No. 1. Autumn, the Wind Soughs in the Trees' and 'North Country Sketches: No. 2. Winter Landscape' evoking the changing landscapes of the British countryside. The album also features the delightful '2 Pieces for Small Orchestra: No. 1. On Hearing the First Cuckoo in Spring', 'A Song Before Sunrise', and 'A Dance Rhapsody No. 2', each one a testament to Delius' mastery of orchestration and his ability to evoke powerful emotions through music.

Frederick Delius' unique compositional style, characterised by its lush harmonies and soaring melodies, is perfectly captured in this album, making it a must-listen for fans of classical music and those looking to discover the beauty of Delius' work. With its rich and varied programme, Delius: Brigg Fair & Sea Drift is a wonderful introduction to the composer's oeuvre, and a fitting tribute to his enduring legacy.
