This CD documents a series of richly productive musical relationships between composers and musicians, and how these composers inspire and are inspired by the musicians with which they work: Frank Bridge and Benjamin Britten; Britten and Mstislav Rostropovich; Mark-Anthony Turnage and Guy Johnston.
Turnage met Johnston when he was still a teenager but was inspired by Johnston's playing. Johnston premiered the eponymous work Milo at Turnage's baby son Milo's christening.
Guy Johnston, winner of the BBC Young Musician of the Year competition, was described by The Strad as ”one of the most promising and distinctive cellists to emerge in recent years”. This is his debut recital CD.
