All the works on this disc, according to the composer Justin Connolly, are explorations of images of darkness. They include "Nocturnal" a set of sea-pictures, and "Scardanelli Dreams", which "charts the motion of a great spirit, not dimmed, but which illuminates the darkness in which it finds itself."

Subcollection: FluteOver the past 40 years Eddie McGuire, British Composer Award winner and Creative Scotland Award winner, has developed a compositional style that is as diverse as it is concentrated. This disc surveys a selection of his solo and chamber works, written for his home instruments, flute, guitar, and piano.
The writing, whilst embracing tonality, focuses on texture and aspects of colour, drawing on a myriad folk influences. The listener cannot help being drawn in to McGuire’s evocative sound-world, at once bold and playful.
