Percussionique
The complete percussion music of Michael S. Horwood
"Expertly performed by the Toronto Percussion Quartet...as well as a few extra players on the larger works,...the sound quality sparkles and reveals every nuance of music that evolves from early influences by the 1960s avant-garde to a more refined style in Michael Horwood's later compositions." (Percussive Notes)
A perfect introduction to Michael S. Horwood's compositional style, this recording is beautifully performed by the Sinfonia Varsovia, conducted by Ian Hobson.Go to Top
