Hellawell: Sound Carvings

Piers Hellawell can stamp real individuality on the most familiar material. Central to this engrossing, extremely well-played survey of his instrumental output of the last decade is the Sound Carvings trilogy: music of vivid colours, imaginative juxtapositions and even quite prolix elaborations. Keith Potter
