The composers on this disc are part of what is sometimes called "The Lost Generation" - those who because of their Jewish background were prevented from working, deported or imprisoned. While some, such as Korngold, were able to emigrate, Schulhoff, Ullmann and Haas all died in Nazi concentration camps. Much of their music has been re-discovered over the past few years, and this collection includes several world premiere recordings. |

Subcollection: Vocal and PianoOne of the most orginal of contemporary British composers, Fox wrote all these pieces in response to the work of other artists, whether as a result of inspiration or by meeting and working with them. You, us, me itself, for example, is based on the Habañera from Bizet's "Carmen". The disc includes songs, and pieces for piano solo and piano with tape, and shows the wide variety of Fox's styles including (as on the sample track) jazz.

Subcollection: Vocal and PianoIn the days when serious composers wrote good music for children to play, sing or just to appreciate, many minor classics were penned. Mussorgsky's "The Nursery" is such and the British songs here, settings of masterpieces of prose by A A Milne and Kipling among others, are also of the highest standard, one or two having become ingrained in the memories of a generation.

Subcollection: Vocal and PianoNew French Song has created a whole new repertoire of songs by British composers. The artists commissioned twenty exceptional British composers, some of whom were well established, others of whom were yet to receive the recognition they deserve. The composers were asked to set French literature of their choice from the past two hundred years. The result is a fascinating rainbow work covering all the major literary movements of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, overlapping into the twenty-first century - Romanticism, Symbolism, Surrealism, Cubism, Modernism and post-Modernism.
