CD release, produced by Em Marshall, was in March 2011. So far, the recording has been received with enthusiasm by the critics. It features two world premiere recordings together with an unjustly-neglected work. The Violin Sonatas by Arthur Bliss and Henry Walford Davies have languished in manuscript form for over one hundred years, and were performed at the 2010 English Music Festival by regular EMF artists Rupert Marshall-Luck and Matthew Rickard. These works are presented alongside the opulent and darkly turbulent Violin Sonata by York Bowen. In future the label will produce both recordings of live concerts and specifically recorded work. Plans are already underway for future releases. These include the World Premiere recording of Gustav Holst's The Coming of Christ (which received its first contemporary performance in the 2010 EMF) performed by the City of London Choir under Hilary Davan Wetton; and a recording of Roger Quilter's piano music by David Owen Norris. Also forthcoming is a live recording, to be made at the 2011 Festival, of part-songs by Rawsthorne and Haydn Wood performed by the Syred Consort under their director, Ben Palmer. Educating both audiences and children about English music is also part of the EMF mission. The festival has run several education projects, such as joint schools concerts. A current project is still in development.
