SEA OF GLASS

Music by post modern and minimalist composers finds a natural and beautiful expression on the harp, whose sounds are so often associated with qualities of restfulness and peace. From the simplicity and devotional depth of Arvo Part to the mesmeric repetitiveness of Philip Glass, the music induces calm and tranquility and speaks directly to the heart of the listener. This recording brings together the works of living composers of the post modernist genre such as John Metcalf, Philip Glass and Arvo Part, and music from the late mediaeval tablature of Robert ap Huw from Wales.
