Composing Without the Picture
Richard Harwood (cello/bass drum)
Music for solo cello by film composers: an engaging idea, delivered by Harwood with fire. Rozsa's Toccata capricciosa tops the list, but most items, new or old, are worth hearing.

November 2013
a disc of music by unfamiliar composers known mainly for their film-music...This is music that in fact manages to speak very clearly without the picture, and Harwood's excellent recording does much to reinforce this view.
