The English composer Havergal Brian (1876-1972) is renowned for his 32 symphonies, 21 of them — written after his 80th birthday — constituting one of the most remarkable Indian summers in the history of music. It is less well known that Brian also composed five operas; since none of them has yet been staged, this CD reveals for the first time some of the remarkably inventive and powerful orchestral pieces hidden within those scores.
