The Martin Read Foundation has been working tirelessly since Martin's death to support young composers. As a friend of Martin's, it has been a joy for me to witness this. @MReadFoundation

Delighted that Howells's early work has taken a step out of the shadows, and that his teacher's voice is also starting to be recognised.

More on the early version of Herbert Howell's 'In Gloucestershire' quartet. Michael White writes in the Catholic Herald:
... so appealing, with a complex, interwoven lyricism but translucent beauty.
A gratifying review for the London Chamber Ensemble Quartet's recording of Herbert Howells and his teacher Charles Wood.
