Product details
Oscar Wilde's text for 'De Profundis' written in the dark days
following his trial inspired Sitsky's illuminating and intense
musical interpretation. Baritone Lyall Bevan, percussionist
Graeme Leak, the Petra and Canberra School of Music String
Quartets give superb performances of this intense work.
In addition this disc features the 'Violin Concerto No.2' which
was inspired by the writings of the influential philosopher
