Coming this May on our sister label, Blue Cloud Music, is a brand new EP from composer and songwriter Julian Marshall. (View the EPK)

Taking influence from jazz styles, filmic atmospheres and romantic orchestral colours, Garden in Summer potently evokes the remarkable poetry of Gertrud Kolmar, with words performed by up and coming actor Avigail Tlalim set to music by Marshall.

As well as the EP a fantastic new film has been commissioned from animator Ciaran Walsh, which you can see below.

And to round off the project, the legendary drummer Steve Gadd has taken part in an exclusive instrumental remix of the lead track, Garden in Summer.
You can listen to that here.
