The music on this disc has a very specific location and time at its heart. Paris in 1907. The Englishman Ralph Vaughan-Williams and Spaniard Manuel de Falla both came to study there and both were accepted in to Maurice Ravel’s close circle of friends (Vaughan-Williams as Ravel’s student). This disc is built around the tantalising thought that these three very different artists were all in Paris at the same time discussing music and inspiring one another. (Simon Crawford-Phillips, from: liner notes).
