Charles Camilleri, born in 1931 in Hamrun, Malta, is today recognised as one of the most individual composers of
our time. His early nationalistic works, already internationally known, are simply described by the composer as “music
of my people to my people”, “I owe everything to my country, its people, its language and the sea that surrounds the
island.” Camilleri’s journey has taken him from simple diatonic and modal folk melodies to complex yet
communicative mature works in which the bar-line often has little place, in which nothing is fixed and his
compositions evolve from themselves with a sense of fluency and inevitability. Timelessness and universality are
among the more recent inspirations for his recent music, as demonstrated by the piano works issued to celebrate the
Millennium (“Celestial Harmonies – Divine Art 25012). “One of the most rewarding compilations of new 20th-century orchestral music I have encountered in a long time. These sparkling performances from Brian Schembri and the excellent Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra could not be more stylish or persuasively spontaneous, and the vividly atmospheric recording is first rate.” Gramophone Magazine, May 2008 | | | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days. |
