About
Written for tenor, piano and string quartet, Williams explored a field of chamber combination which had not been previously done by an English composer. Followed by Ludlow & Teme and Songs of Eternity & Sorrow Op.36 by Ivor Gurney & Ian Venables respectively, this disc provides the listener with renditions from three great English composers ranging from the late 19th century to the present day, all with words by A.E.Housman, performed beautifully by Andrew Kennedy, Simon Crawford-Phillips & the Dante Quartet.
Andrew Kennedy studied at King's College, Cambridge and the Royal College of Music in London. He has been a member of the Young Artists Programme at the Royal Opera, Covent Garden and Radio 3's New Generation Artists Scheme. He has won numerous prizes and awards including the 2005 BBC Singer of the World Rosenblatt Recital Prize, second prize in the 2004 Kathleen Ferrier Awards and the Queen Elizabeth Rosebowl from the Royal College of Music in recognition of outstanding achievement. He is a Borletti-Buitoni Trust Award winner and won the Royal Philharmonic Society Young Artists' Award in 2006.
