The Foundation has recently released an album of Martin's music, which has gone straight to no. 9 in the Classical Compilation Album Charts. Time to listen. https://t.co/rhfj6z1vDP https://t.co/YMG2Aa00R2

The Martin Read Foundation has been working tirelessly since Martin's death to support young composers. As a friend of Martin's, it has been a joy for me to witness this. @MReadFoundation

Delighted that Howells's early work has taken a step out of the shadows, and that his teacher's voice is also starting to be recognised. @LonChamberEns

“The London Chamber Ensemble Quartet give a good performance, full of dynamic brilliance & passion. The arrangements are sympathetic, effective and well played.  Charles Wood’s String Qtet in D is a very interesting and intelligent coupling.. another fine & dedicated performance”

More on the early version of Herbert Howell's 'In Gloucestershire' quartet. Michael White writes in the Catholic Herald: ... so appealing, with a complex, interwoven lyricism but translucent beauty.
