Frank Bridge is one of those composers who has been generally dismissed for his 'Englishness' and is probably remembered best today as the teacher of Benjamin Britten. But this disc of chamber music will radically change this appraisal. It particularly reveals Bridge's strong French influence, the dance-like quality of his writing darkened with a brooding inspiration, and the music's dramatic and emotional heart. Three important and very different works are collected here.
