Métier announces a new album of music by British composer Justin Connolly! In a 1988 interview Pierre Boulez spoke about the British music that interested him during what he described as ‘golden years’ in London. He named only five composers (with Britten and Tippett notable for their absence). Justin Connolly’s place in that list is striking given the almost complete absence of his music from the public stage in recent years perhaps due to an extended compositional break caused by ill health in the late 70s and 80s. This new double album will be the most extensive picture yet of Connolly’s conceptually rigorous, highly lyrical, deeply virtuosic, and sometimes curiously playful music.
