Further Distillations is a programme of new and recent music by a group of composers with a background in traditional music. All highly successful creative artists in their own right, this project has them writing compositions involving string quartet and bass.
For some years Mr McFall's Chamber has been resident ensemble for Distil, a pioneering course run by Hands Up For Trad which offers top level tutoring from eminent composers across jazz, classical and other musical styles, alongside opportunities to have new works performed.
Having been privileged to give first performances of many wonderful new works at Distil Showcase events, Mr McFall's Chamber are here selecting a 'further distillation' from those programmes, as well as fermenting a new batch of compositions from three selected composers - Corrina Hewat, Gillian Fleetwood and Kate Young. Other featured composers include Hamish Napier, Andrew Dunlop and, for good measure, Martyn Bennett.
