The London-based Tippett Quartet is joined by pianist Emma Abbate and the BBC Symphony Orchestra's principal cellist Susan Monks on three quintets by the late British composer Stephen Dodgson. The pieces, all world premieres, display how Dodgson's musical language draws from Shostakovich’s irony, Janáček’s spiky energy and Britten’s polished clarity, occasionally reaching further into the past in passages of Purcellian dignity, animated by a gentle harmonic warmth of Dodgson’s own. The result, in a typically English paradox, manages to be both elusive and direct.
