Colin Matthews : Machines & Dreams



This 2-disc Ancora reissue brings together Alexander Baillie's impassioned recording of Matthews' Cello Concerto No.1 and 4 works commissioned by the LSO - including the riotous Machines & Dreams, an updated 'toy symphony'.

"This set offers a rounded portrait of a restlessly questing composer … big architectonic pieces in performances of impressive might under Carewe."
The Sunday Times 2004
