Glenn Dickson This is my favorite solo clarinet album. There are others that are amazing- John Carter, Vinny Golia, Eric Mandat, but this one has a special soothing and pastoral quality , while still being interesting music, that pulls me to listen to it more often.

    Gyre is the first solo album released by TNW Music. The CD is a two panel cardboard digipack with beautiful design by Hlavi.

    "The selection and preparation of works for this album meant a time of reflection on recent years of solo performing, from 2014-18. It was illuminating to revisit repertoire following a periodof creative development working on other things, and consider possible new angles and musical choices.
    I sought with this programme to create an arc’d listening journey, beginning quite far away,
    and the listener being drawn closer with each piece, until uncomfortably close in Requiem - then slipping gradually further away again, the feeling being that you have passed by the player, or the concert, and, even as you can no longer hear it, the music continues on. The picture in my mind is a distant boat approaching and moving past the gyre of gannets I describe in my piece."
