OUT OF OBLIVION II

OUT OF OBLIVION II

The Welsh composer Morfydd Owen wrote many songs and piano pieces – including a piano sonata at the age of just 18, and yet most of her works were undiscovered until recently. Brian Ellsbury tell Rebecca Kesby for Witness how he deciphered her recovered manuscripts and was the first person to record the lost music – 100 years after her death.
