When Nicky Spence was first shown the score to The Boy in the Train , the last of Buxton Orr's Songs of a Childhood, he was transported to the late 1980s his own childhood in Scotland. Something about Buxton's sense of humour,excitement and honesty resonated with me, Spence says, and fed my desire to discover more about his work. On contacting his widow, I was led to a treasure trove of unrecorded works for voice.
