Barrett/ Ferneyhough/ Fox &c : Tracts



Acclaimed pianist Ian Pace is heard on this disc in an unapologetically avant-garde programme featuring Brian Ferneyhough's gnomic Lemma-Icon-Epigram and Richard Barrett's dense and complex Tract, as well as Chris Dench's complex Topologies, James Erber's You done torn your playhouse down and Christopher Fox's driving lliK-relliK (a tribute to Jerry Lee Lewis).
