About

Onslow is a composer who is being rediscovered thanks to an increasing number of recordings devoted to him. Having previously existed only in dispersed order, all the works are brought together here in a double digipak. This also provides the opportunity to discover a young wind ensemble (Ensemble Initium), made up from soloists from major orchestras. This is their first recording for Timpani and it will not be their last.
