Joby Talbot - The Dying Swan (Music for 1 to 7 Players) (2002)

Joby Talbot became quite well known as arranger, conducter and performer of The Divine Comedy in such excellent records as "Casanova", "Fin de Siècle" or "Absent Friends". He has also written cinema and TV soundtracks along with some more classical stuff wich is what we're talking about here.

The materials and processes he uses are generally simple and transparent, but effective. The results are frequently moving, and often beautiful. (Taken from the Gramophone Magazine)
