Mark Simpson's simmering, volcanic Geysir was inspired by the rich opening chord of Mozart's 'Gran Partita', and by it's bubbling clarinet writing, which develop into what Simpson describes as a \"flurry of colour and harmonic shifts\". As a clarinetist himself, writing Geysir \"was an instinctive thing - it never felt like trying to overcome any limitations... I'm very proud of it...\" Mark Simpson, who performs on this release alongside a line-up of other extraordinary musicians including oboist Nicholas Daniel, was the first ever winner of both the BBC Young Musician of the Year and BBC Proms\/Guardian Young Composer of the Year competitions in 2006. By 2019 he was composer in residence at the Leicester International Music Festival, and is currently working on a Violin Concerto for Nicola Benedetti and commissions for the LSO, WDR Sinfonieorchester and RSNO.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAudio Sample:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n                                           \u003ci\u003eAll soundclips are provided by Tidal and are for illustrative purposes only.
