Product details

Adelaide-based Becky Llewellyn has been composing for many years and yet has not received the recognition she deserves for her beautiful works. Featuring an innovative classical music video, together with groups such as the Adelaide Symphony and Chamber Orchestras, the Adelaide Chamber Choir and soloists including marimba virtuoso Ryszard Pusz, this CD is an attempt to redress the situation and showcases a broad selection of Lewellyn's works over the past decade. The title, Milerum's Basket, refers to Llewellyn's orchestral tribute to South Australia's Ngarrindjeri people that were once based in the sand dunes of the Coorong region.

For those under pressure and feeling time poor, listening to Llewellyn's fresh acoustic music played by some of Australia's top musicians will stimulate and refresh the spirit.

Duration: 60 min.

Includes a Quicktime video recording which accompanies Berceuse.

Liner notes include programme notes and biographical notes on the composer.
