Description:

Orwin: A Collection of Chamber MusicWilliam Orwin [19051985], a British composer best known for his film scores, left behind a vast body of work spanning many genres, from orchestral pieces to art songs and instrumental works. A Romantic who preferred that music be received with the heart rather than understood with the mind, his works are all a delight to the ear.The works included here range from the 1931 *Two Songs* to the *Chaconne for Tom*, written in 1982, allowing listeners to witness the maturation of Orwins compositional technique over a span of 50 years.
