Continuing the amazingly high standards of compositional brillannce and virtuoso performance which led MusicWeb to call the first volumes of this series ‘one of the musical discoveries and revelations of the 21st century’, this CD should go further to cement Chisholm’s reputation as the composer of a large amount of music which is totally unique, with its mix of Eastern and Scottish influences, and use of ancient Scots airs and motifs.
