Ed McKeon introduces semi-improvised pieces by fORCH, Morla and the Smith Quartet; plus Pwyll ap-Sian's Gwales played by the 成人快手 National Orchestra of Wales.

Morla and the Smith Quartet
And from the Bangor New Music Festival, a fully-composed orchestral work that travels from Mozart's Requiem to an imagined Utopia:
Pwyll ap-Sian: Gwales
成人快手 National Orchestra of Wales conducted by Grant Llewellyn.
