Release is part of a BBC 2 film series on British composers. Each of the portrayed composers was asked to write a work around which the film was built. Both the musical piece and the film Release reflect Mark-Anthony Turnage’s ambivalent feelings towards the place where he grew up: Grays in Essex. Instrumentation: 2 Saxophones (SA), Bass-Clarinet, Trumpet in C, Tenor-Trombone, Percussion, Piano and Double-bass
