DAVID COLLIER: SMACHT

This debut release from David Collier is an engrossing sweep of the Irish composer's recent work. The nuanced and expansive meditations of the string quartet "Smacht" are presented together with the pulsating brilliance of "Dusk", a dazzling work for four percussionists. Collier's compositions - sharp-focused and sincere - radiate warmth and vitality, and are presented in a beautiful vinyl edition with artwork by Louise Gaffney.'
