Overview

The Armed Man was commissioned by the Royal Armouries in the UK to mark the millennium year 2000. The CD achieved 'gold' sales and spent over 185 weeks in the UK classical charts. This DVD presents a live concert performance of Jenkins’ dramatic work against a backdrop of provocative video images.
