The Shell Adagio op. 17

A new work from this gifted young composer, The Shell Adagio has received numerous performances from notable orchestras and will certainly find its place in the modern string orchestra repertoire. The Oxford Times called it “beautifully melodic and extremely approachable.”The Shell Adagio is a lyrical and melancolic piece. From its sunrise like intoduction to its quite sunset departur, it is like a chronicle of a past life, sometimes light and optimistic or dark and inescapable.
