Northern Chamber Orchestra - Manchester Accents [CD]

The composers and artists on Prima Facie's latest release, Manchester Accents, all have links to Manchester. Composers include Terance Greaves, Anthony Gilbert, Walter Carroll, Eric Fogg, John McCabe, Thomas Pitfield, John Manduell and James Langley.

"This disc is filled with both new discovery and, for me, the familiarity of a musical language which may or may not be alive and kicking today, but which at its best is as easy on the eye as friendly faces on the streets of one's hometown. Every one of the pieces on this CD has its own atmosphere, substance and emotional weight... The recording is excellent and set in an appropriately resonant acoustic. The playing of the Northern Chamber Orchestra is also exemplary." Dominey Clements, MusicWeb International.
