Nigel Hess: 'Shakespeare Pictures' on both sides of the Atlantic
Nigel Hess has written some of the most performed music for symphonic wind band of recent years, many gathered together on "The Winds of Power" CD, a Chandos release. His latest work, 'Shakespeare Pictures', reworks some of his outstanding scores composed for the Royal Shakespeare Company. Next month sees it performed by Birmingham Symphonic Winds in their home town, and then at Lincoln Center in New York.
