  • Description

    Formed in 2019, award-winning violin and cello
    duo GAIA have rapidly won plaudits for their
    pioneering programming and bold and daring
    performances.Their debut album release
    features three works specially written for the
    duo, and also bears testimony to their
    championing of works by underrepresented and
    overlooked voices from classical music’s past.
    Elements of folk and jazz string-playing styles
    rub shoulders with traditional chamber-music
    imperatives in a programme that is full of
    women’s voices: those of the performers; of
    composers Sally Beamish, Rebecca Clarke and
    Elizabeth Maconchy; and of the singers of two
    Scottish folksongs, taped recordings of which
    frame Duncan Strachan’s hauntingly evocative
    Thirteen Ways of Looking at a Blackbird.
