Product Details

Description

Out of the Stillness for cor anglais and strings takes its title from part of the Wilfred Owen poem set by Britten in his Nocturne, Op. 60. The work begins from Britten’s hauntingly beautiful writing for cor anglais in that piece, exploring its lyrical and reflective character in a new, personal way.
