Following a devastating cancer diagnosis in September 2022, Adrian Sutton, the composer of the music for War Horse, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, and other National Theatre productions, made a conscious decision to change his focus, committing himself to working solely on music for the concert hall. This new album of world premiere recordings reflects his new creative focus. Winner of 2023 & 2018 BBC Music Magazine Awards, British violinist Fenella Humphreys is the soloist in the violin concerto. The musical language is highly accessible and fits nicely into the cinematic or contemporary symphonic orchestral poem.
