Genius Loci
Genius Loci was born following the release of Sacred Landscapes by Sue Aston back in 1999.
Since then we have evolved into a successful design and media company supporting Cornish businesses whilst still being a unique guide for visitors to Cornwall.
Genius Loci
We are also the official outlet for Sue Aston CDs and DVDs
"The landscape of Cornwall, the sea, the folklore and the lifestyle here are all tremendous influences on our work and have been for many other composers" says Sue. The Aston String Quartet is synonymous with exciting new musical ventures, and showcases the talents of new composers and excellent musicians".

The Quartet is more than a platform for Sue's classical compositions, as it also
enables her to realise her dream of bringing together music from a variety of
different backgrounds many of them with the common theme of music which has been
inspired by the landscape.
Sue Aston's solo CDs and DVDs have been described as 'Celtic music for the
classically appreciative' by Cornish World Editor Nigel Pengelly and her
videos are regularly played on SKY TV.
