BBC Symphony Orchestra, Andrew Davis - David Sawer: Byrnan Wood

Byrnan Wood was inspired by Shakespeare's famous peripatetic forest in Macbeth; it explores the possibilities offered by the permutation of stillness into movement, as musical figures pass between players like Chinese whispers.

Reviews

"Sawer's writing is full of vivid ideas and crisp shapes; the whole piece has a machine-like inevitability about it that generates real physical excitement, and it is well caught in the BBC Symphony's performance under Andrew Davis."
The Guardian 1995
