Elgar: Serenade Etc; Vaughan Williams / Barbirolli
Label: EMISP Catalog: 672642 Format: CD Two London orchestras tackle two English composers. Here we have Elgar's 'Introduction and Allegro', 'Serenade in E minor' and it is refreshing to experience these works away from the standards of 'Pomp and Circumstance'. Vaughan Williams is represented here with two of his favour orchestral works; 'Fantasia on Greensleeves', and 'Fantasia on a theme by Thomas Tallis'. This disc showcases the lush orchestral sound of the English music at the turn of the century. A gorgeous sound! |
