Jane Wells: Occasional Music
A feature album of chamber works by English composer Jane Wells which has been a mainstay of the Metier catalog for several years. Jane Wells had some fine teachers including David Lumsdaine and Jonathan Harvey. She left London in 1987 to become composer/musician-in-residence at a small arts centre on the North Norfolk coast. Jane has over 30 years practical experience of leading group music-making projects since her interest was sparked through postgraduate level research around ‘creative music-making for adults outside formal education’. Since then she has worked as a music specialist workshop leader with people of many ages and abilities including with schools.

Reviews
“The Composers Ensemble perform well throughout and the recording is clear and well produced. The whole CD is a pleasure to listen to, and the compositions must also be a pleasure for the performers to play… this recording is a refreshing change. Jane Wells deserves a large audience for her music and for this CD.
