'In the Dark Time' review

'… a subtle and tumultuous symphonic poem… my interest was gripped by the confident breadth of the melodic writing and the richness and delicacy of orchestral invention … It is a piece of impressive large-scale musical thinking, full of exciting sounds and freshly heard harmonies' The Sunday Times (David Cairns), 15 December 1985
