Intérprete: Birmingham Contemporary Music Group

Emily Howard's new opera, an Aldeburgh Festival commission, takes an ambitiously modernist approach to a dystopian story of loneliness: a tough, but thought-provoking work. 

The Birmingham Contemporary Music Group present an ambitious mixture of experimental chamber music and disquieting monodrama. 

Oliver Knussen and the Birmingham Contemporary Music Group excel in a cunningly linked group of works from the old (mid 1980s) to the brand new.
