Our disc Reels, Drones & Jigs, released on Champs Hill Records, continues to find new listeners — so we thought it was worth pulling together some of the press it received on release.
BBC Music Magazine praised the disc’s “appealing sequence” of contemporary and folk-inspired writing, awarding it 4 stars for performance and 5 for recording (BBC Music Magazine, Christmas 2021).
Writing for Planet Hugill, Robert Hugill called it “a delightful and imaginative programme,” highlighting the disc’s “series of little gems” (★★★★, October 2021).
The recording features works by Judith Weir, James MacMillan, Peter Maxwell Davies, David Matthews and Aidan O’Rourke, inspired by the weather and landscape of the British Isles. It’s available to stream and purchase from all good outlets, including [Presto Music].
If you haven’t heard it yet, now’s a good time to put that right.
