£113.30Enjoy - Marco Tamanini
"Enjoy", but also savour, relish: this is not descriptive music, but music to be appreciated.

This piece is characterised by a continuous variation of timbres and colours, in a quest for instrumental solutions that are constantly changing.

The characteristic flatted-7th of much English folk music is retained in both the quick opening section and the slow, reflective variation that forms the B section of this clever and appealing overture-style piece.
