Description: The only available modern recordings available of the quartet and trio, both with the beautiful, deep, meditative quality you'll know from Rubbra's symphonies, the single-movement, 20-minute piano trio especially luminous while the quartet is no less engrossing, especially the long slow movement, a Cavatina in homage to Beethoven's Op. 130 quartet. Not surprisingly, given the composer's historical interests, the five Amoretti set texts by Edmund Spencer while the two songs of Ave Maria Gratia Plena use Renaissance poetry. Texts included. Maggini Quartet, Martin Roscoe (piano), Charles Daniels (tenor).
