Brian Elias Music for Strings

Signum Classics is proud to release an album of string works by the award-winning composer, Brian Elias. Spanning almost half a century, this survey of Brian Elias’s chamber music for strings arose from a retrospective staged in 2020 by the Music@Malling festival in Kent. His first album on Signum, it is released alongside ‘Music for Wind’ and will be launched at Music@Malling in September 2024. The album artwork is by celebrated artist Anish Kapoor. "Amply gifted as an orchestral composer...purified intensity, immediacy and unrestrained lyricism" - Paul Griffiths, The Sunday Times
