My word what a beautiful sound world Daniel conjure up - it immediately takes me into a magical world. The detail of texture and orchestration really are very effective and capture a sound-world that is at once like a fairy-tale and unfolds the story very subtly. The, what I can only call 'lush' sound world reminds me sometimes of wonderful composers like Janacek, Stravinsky or even Scriabin at moments. Added to this his reimagined and strong sense of drama and colour, deals boldly with the subject matter.
