Awards and reviews

February 2020

Simon Earl, the Priory’s director of music since 2012, clearly knows his way around its well- equipped resources, as evidenced by this adroitly chosen programme. Nimbly alert in Andrew Carter’s Trumpet Tune, he imbues Barber’s Adagio with poetic poignancy, is thrillingly virtuosic in Dan Locklair’s chiaroscuro-contrasted Rubrics, and altogether consummate in Denis Bédard’s Variations sur ‘Amazing Grace’.
