Released in time for Spring, Alessandro Fisher is joined by pianist Anna Tilbrook to offer a fragrant bouquet in music, made up of songs about almond blossom, anenomes, daffodils, mint, roses, thyme and violets let alone honeysuckle and convulvulus. Recorded live at London’s Wigmore Hall and released by Rubicon Classics on 23 February 2024, this is the ideal soundtrack to any gardener or flower lover in Spring – or even at any time during the gardening year.
