2006 RPS Music Awards Winner
Chamber-Scale Composition
Richard Causton: Phoenix
Richard Causton's Phoenix is a piece that consolidates the qualities of this composer's recent music, its fastidious clarity and economy. But Phoenix also opens up a new expressive world, an emotional directness that Causton vividly conjures from a five-piece ensemble.
