Richard Skelton

    Richard Skelton est un musicien britannique dont l'œuvre est née comme un moyen de traiter le deuil suite au décès de sa femme. Ses compositions, utilisant principalement la guitare et le violon, explorent les thèmes de la mémoire et du lieu. Il fait explicitement référence à des paysages d'une profonde résonance émotionnelle, en particulier les West Pennine Moors et la région autour d'Anglezarke. Son approche est introspective et évocatrice, reflétant des paysages intérieurs et la perte.
