Cutting-edge contemporary music for both chamber ensembles and solo instruments by this highly individualistic and well-regarded composer.
Alwynne Pritchard was born in Glasgow in 1968. Encouraged by her father, the composer Gwyn Pritchard, she began composing as a teenager and went on to study composition with Robert Saxton at the Guildhall School of Music, and later with Justin Connolly and Michael Finnissy at the Royal Academy of Music where she was awarded many prizes for her work. She has since been distinguished by critics for her "strong, spare language" and "restrained eloquence".

Emsley's music relates to time... and timelessness. To Kantian philosophy... to conceptual thought... to noumenal reality. In simpler terms, music itself can transcend time, being the universal language of Pythagoras and modern science - the Divine Art. Played by Topologies, one of the UK's foremost contemporary music ensembles, and featuring Ian Pace on solo piano tracks.

Michael Finnissy is amongst the most celebrated of contemporary British composers and his music is featured on many of our CDs. This selection of works for chamber group and solo instruments written between 1977 and 1990 displays both his formidable talents and those of Topologies. These pieces are inspired by the disappearing musical cultures in places affected by ethnic cleansing (Kurdestan and Azerbaijan) and "discredited" musical styles such as free jazz and expressionism.

Dilok (oboe & percussion) Delal (oboe d'amore & percussion) Kulamen Dilan (soprano sax & percussion) Moon's goin' down (solo oboe) Runnin' wild (solo oboe) Keroiylu (oboe, bassoon & piano) Lost Lands (sax, clarinet, violin, guitar, piano)
