Programme Note
In August 2017 I travelled to Malta to watch three brilliant ballets choreographed by Royal Ballet First Artist Erico Montes. In the apartment where I stayed was a bust of Bacchus, the God of Wine. My co-producer suggested I write a piece called Bacchus and fill it with merriment and mischief. On my return to the UK I had fun writing this pizzicato piece for strings.

Reviews
"Slick, lyrical and bubbly, Davis’s concert music is a happy extension of his work for TV and film. Bacchus is a joyful pizzicato piece of mischief."
