Mary King, Martyn Brabbins, Catherine Wyn-Rogers, BBC Singers, Tadaaki Otaka, BBC Symphony Orchestra - Brian Elias: Laments
Elias's acclaimed settings of the anguished poetry of exiled Russian author Irina Ratushinskaya are coupled with Laments, which sets traditional folk texts of loss and mourning in the nearly extinct Sicilian-Greek dialect, Grico.
