YOU, US, ME: music by Christopher Fox
AMANDA CRAWLEY (soprano), IAN PACE(piano)

One of the most orginal of contemporary British composers, Fox wrote all these pieces in response to the work of other artists, whether as a result of inspiration or by meeting and working with them. You, us, me itself, for example, is based on the Habañera from Bizet's "Carmen". The disc includes songs, and pieces for piano solo and piano with tape, and shows the wide variety of Fox's styles including (as on the sample track) jazz.

“Ian Pace is convincing in all idioms here, while Amanda Crawley conveys the nonsense most entertainingly... a thoroughly entertaining presentation of the work of this quirky and inventive British composer.” - Andy Hamilton (Classic CD)
