Digital Booklet

"... wonderfully manicured sound, ultra-clear enunciation ... marvellously dramatic delivery of texts and music are wholly winning ... myriad styles and resonances in the music are delivered with aplomb ... required listening for oh, so many reasons!"
- Gramophone
"Four Stars ... excellently performed, mind-stretching ... all the composers have brought imagination to their works and there are fascinating sounds aplenty, from unusual vocalizations to barbershop nonchalance, traditional Bulgarian singing and cool Medieval beauty."
- BBC Music Magazine
The Franklin Effect is a set of variations for vocal quartet, focusing on the work of DNA scientist Rosalind Franklin at King’s College in London through four of the college’s current female scientists in collaboration with four composers. The pieces were premiered at King’s College in October 2015 and were recorded in early June 2016 for this album.
