Iain Ellis Hamilton (1922-2000) dedicated his life to composition after being awarded a scholarship to the Royal Academy of Music in 1947. Three works are presented on this release, and are indicative of the wide variations in Hamilton’s catalogue. The Bermudas, Piano Concerto No. 1, and Cantos for horn, tuba, harp and orchestra are recorded on this album. The recordings on this album were taken in 1973, 1961, and 1965, respectively.
