Blown away by Frank Denyer's epic The Fish that became the Sun (Songs of the Dispossessed) - I'd have loved to see all those instruments but it packs a punch on the radio too. Congrats @JonHargreaves5 @_Octandre_ @HCMFUK bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m000cb…

Shame I won't be there to hear this belated Frank Denyer premiere, but I hear it's completely sold out already. Listening to the excellent #anothertimbre recording as compensation.
