Writing reviews on Richard Barrett compositions/CD
Writing some nice reviews on composer Richard Barrett http://www.ump.co.uk/barrett.htm. Wonderful stuff. His publisher very kindly sent me the scores to help me unravel the music. Dense, beautiful stuff. Recomend a listen. Prefer the smaller ensemble stuff to his large-scale Vanity work for large orchestra.

oh,that's interesting. i quite like 'vanity'....definitely one of the more interesting composers working in the UK.can't understand why sir simon r didn't show any interest in Barrett's work while he was resident in berlin.seemed like a natural choice,but he's more into neutral figures like turnage and ades i guess.
