David Ellis has been a major figure in British music for longer than he cares to remember – a doyen of the ‘industry’ as conductor, composer, record producer and for many years head of music for BBC North. This is a super anthology of orchestral works recorded at different times by various Manchester orchestras; the style is in the best tradition of modern-approachable-impressionistic, post-Romantic if one needs a label, but the excellent music can stand without being pigeon-holed.
