Clare Hammond

A chance to discover wonderful music by composers from the last 100 years whose music is little known.

Clare Hammond plays a typically brilliant programme of fascinating gems by 20th-century composers very rarely heard today, including a Russian exiled by revolution, a hugely prolific African-American, and two English women who were contemporaries of Britten.
