'Falling Angel', Davies 17-minute work for 17 players was first performed by the Birmingham Contemporary Music Group in 2007, conducted by Thomas Adès, and toured to Paris.
The work was described by Paul Conway (Tempo magazine) as “Fanfares and marches fuelled dense, multi-layered textures… there was an ever-present sense of danger, of teeting on the brink”. The BCMG ensemble and Peter Rundel revive the work in Birmingham this December, along with Davies’ 'Iris'.
