“The untimely death of William Mathias in July 1992
(aged 57) robbed British music of one of its most
natural communicators and consummate craftsmen.
This new anthology offers a rewarding and varied
portrait of a much-loved figure. The first disc by the
Welsh Chamber Orchestra:established in 1986, they
leave a very positive impression under their founder
and principal conductor Anthony Hose.” Gramophone
