Three Worlds: Music From Woolf Works, as the name suggests, draws from Richter's score for Wolf Works,
a critically acclaimed three-act Royal Ballet production from Wayne
McGregor inspired by the works of the influential English writer
Virginia Woolf. Described as featuring "a vast palette of sounds—from
solo instrumental and orchestral episodes, to electronic textures and
music for wordless soprano," the score makes use of themes from three of
Woolf's novels, Mrs Dalloway, Orlando and The Waves.
It also employs a rare 1937 BBC recording of Woolf reading an essay
called "Craftsmanship," reportedly the only surviving recording of
Woolf's voice, along with the farewell note she left her husband before
committing suicide in 1941, which is read by Gillian Anderson.
