Digital Booklet

"... a formidable achievement ... Barley skilfully leads his material through a variety of treatments ... his strong, singing tone is particularly to the fore in an extended cantabile passage shortly before the end."
- International Record Review
"... this engrossing recital is a defining statement in modern cello playing. Barley plays with the microinstincts of a violinist, shading every phrase with the subtlest of nuances ... stunningly played and engineered ..."
- Sinfini Music
Matthew Barley adds to his reputation as one of the UK's most innovative and creative performers with this release celebrating the centenary of Britten's birth. Barley presents a selection of Britten's works, including the Third Cello Suite along with pieces by Sir John Tavener and Gavin Bryars.
