Maxwell Davies, Peter - Three Sanday Places (Piano)
In the spirit of the composer's now-famous Farewell to Stromness, this suite of short pieces takes its inspiration from the northern Orkney island of Sanday on which he lives. In three beautiful piano miniatures he captures the special character of the Knowes o' Yarrow, Waters of Woo and Kettletoft Pier.
