British composer JEFFREY LEWIS has produced some absolutely stunning music - modernist in some ways but always reaching out to the listener - deeply spiritual and hauntingly beautiful, especially the wonderful Silentia Noctis for soprano and piano. Anyone wanting a perfect introduction to the best of contemporary music should look no further.

 

“...[Silentia Noctis] has a vocal line acutely sensitive to the texts and a hinting, alluding and prompting piano line, this is a fine and in many ways compelling setting. Caroline MacPhie and David Jones, both excellent. [Duologue is a] thoroughly convincing and appealing work. Lewis has been admirably served by his engineers and by committed and subtly performances”
