"INNER" - cello music by Christopher Fox METIER's third CD dedicated to the "impressive, thoughtful, entertaining and extremely varied" [Sunday Times] music of Christopher Fox. Fox brings music for solo cello into the modern age - his sometimes microtonic, sometimes lyrical, writing demands especial skill and virtuosity from the performer - ably provided by Lukoszieveze. Fox, for those in the know, is one of the foremost contemporary composers in the UK - see other Metier CDs of his music. |

| “Inner tells you everything you need to know about the uncharted possibilities of acoustic composition. In Anton Lukoszevieze, [Fox] has found a consummate narrative performer who makes much of the tension between the often delicate purity of the music and its structural rigour.” - Philip Clark (The Wire) | |||
| ”played with radiant commitment by a votary of avant-gardism. [In “inner”] the simplest of little phrases is revisited 33 times to form an epic succession that suggests a dadaist version of a Bach chaconne, but has the genuine spiritual pull of one of Morton Feldman’s rapt excursions.” – Paul Driver (The Sunday Times) | |||
