TIME BEING

ERSKINE - DANIELSSON - TAYLOR

This 1994 release on the ECM label is unique! Not only is it performed by three of the most versatile and highly respected musicians in the world, (better known perhaps for their long tenure in the Jazz field) but they include on this album a tribute to Peter Warlock by using his piece titled "Pieds - en - l'air". Warlock scholars will know this to come from the well known "Capriol Suite". This 4:38 minute track concludes an excellent album and is a true statement that this is not just contemporary Jazz but just music...............wonderful MUSIC at that!

Check it out, the acoustic string bass has the theme and the whole track is played with a feeling of sublime drifting to a far away place.....away from the strife of this modern age.

A WARLOCK CENTENARY ALBUM

The Curlew - Songs & Carols - Capriol Suite
+ much more

This CD was released during the centenary year of Heseltine's birth - 1994.

Just short of 70 minutes of music which does great justice to many of the splendid compositions recorded over many decades. Particularly special to Warlockians is the inclusion of his
"The Shrouding of the Duchess of Malfi"
which is purely stunning!
