Conductor:
David Atherton

Background: Peter Grimes encapsulates many of the themes that preoccupy Britten's dramatic works, the vulnerability of innocence, the abuse of power and the susceptibility of the outsider to the pressures of society. Recorded at Covent Garden we are treated to a Grimes of intelligence and complexity.

Director Tim Albery approaches this music theatre with great sensitivity, allowing both the music and the vocal line their individual space to unfold. David Atherton and the orchestra of the ENO, clearly understand how to drive the music's expressive power.
