Juliana Koch Presents Ruth Gipps at Her Best
Gipps had a rare gift for composition and one that just is now being fully appreciated. If you like English music, this disc is for you.
British Music for Strings Features Women Composers
Douglas Bostock directs the Sudwestdeutsches Kammerorchestere Pforzheim. Though German, the musicians capture the inherent "Englishness" of these works.
Peter Cigleris performs Ruth Gipps chamber works
Gipps wrote music to her own high standards, regardless of fashion. Listening to these compositions a half-century later, I think it was the right decision.
