Unusual works by Parry and Stanford

'The music will give uncomplicated delight' (Fanfare)

'The performances are clean and contained, but also affectionate, with recordings fresh and sensitively balanced' (BBC Music Magazine)

Parry's Nonet for wind instruments (including a cor anglais) was written when he was 29 and never performed in his lifetime. The Stanford Nonet is scored for wind and strings. Delightfully played by Capricorn, it makes an ideal contrast to the Parry.
