In September 2026, Métier Records presents Cliff Edge from Irish-born composer David Wallace: a striking new album of six works that illuminate his distinctive approach to material-led composition. Scored for forces ranging from solo bass clarinet to mixed chamber ensemble, the album presents a world where musical ideas behave like living organisms – shifting, resisting, and revealing themselves through pressure and transformation.

The performers include Heather Roche (clarinet), Chenyin Li (piano), Jean Kelly (harp), James Widden (violin/viola), Alison Holford (cello), and other leading UK and international soloists and chamber musicians.
