The Millenium BBC Promenade orchestral commission of Inside Story confirms Piers Hellawell’s position as one of the new voices in Britain of stature. His orchestral works are paired with the String Quartet.
"A varied and well chosen collection of three pieces. [Hellawell] rewards you with a passage of radiant, singing lyricism or quiet, deep emotion [...] he is indeed a most likeable composer."
(Michael Oliver for Gramophone)
"The performances are brilliant and eloquent, the recordings exemplary. Hellawell’s is an alert, engaging, absorbingly intelligent musical mind, and it is good to have such a satisfying cross-section of his music on disc."
(International Record Review)
"Well, this doesn’t happen very often […] No sooner had I got to the end of Hellawell’s Quadruple Elegy than I was reaching for the repeat button."
