Eleanor Hudson - This Curious Harp: 20th Century British Music for Solo Harp

This Curious Harp features a programme of mainly unrecorded British music for solo harp performed by the distinguished harpist Eleanor Hudson, former Principal Harp with the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic and recorded in St Saviour's Church, Wildboarclough, in the heart of Macclesfield Forest in north west England. The programme opens with York Bowen's beautiful Arabesque, the only item on this CD to have been commercially recorded before (once) and features delightful unrecorded music by Bantock, Hamilton Harty, Leonard Salzedo, Geoffrey Burgon, Stephen Dodgson, Ian Parrott and Thomas Pitfield.
