The Marian Consort - A Winged Woman - BBC Radio 3 'Record Review'

Highly effective pieces that make the most of their rich sound and exacting standard. Pieces with a foot in the past celebrating vocal tradition but also finding ways of challenging expectations and refreshing ears. Seven first recordings, excellent women composers as well, not least Scottish Greek composer Electra Perivolaris whose piece A Winged Woman layers different texts on the Annunciation to mesmeric effect.
