The late Stephen Dodgson (1924-2013) was a unique compositional voice in Britain’s musical landscape who created a prolific output of work across a variety of genres. This collection marks a longstanding collaborative engagement between duo and composer, including Dodgson’s first work for guitar duo (of which Eden-Stell gave the premiere UK performance), and highlighted by the 1998 ‘Concertino for Two Guitars and Strings’ ? commissioned by Eden Stell. The disc also includes performances from Helen Sanderson, and ‘Orchestra Nova’ conducted by George Vass.
