SIR ARTHUR BLISS

SIR ARTHUR BLISS WORKS FOR BRASS BAND Black Dyke Band | John Wilson Kenilworth and The Belmont Variations sit alongside Four Dances from Checkmate and a suite from Things to Come. Three première recordings complete the album: a suite from the ballet Adam Zero and arrangements of Welcome the Queen and The Royal Palaces.

ROBERT & CLARA SCHUMANN

WORKS FOR OBOE AND PIANO Nicholas Daniel | Julius Drake Most of the repertoire presented on this album was composed for other instruments: transcribing for another instrument (in this case the oboe) is not only in keeping with performance practise of the time, but also presents these works in a new light.

RECORDING OF THE MONTH

RECORDING OF THE MONTH Roberto Gerhard

Don Quixote (complete ballet); Suite from ‘Alegrías’; Pedrelliana

BBC Philharmonic | Juanjo Mena

Juanjo Mena conducts the BBC Philharmonic in this latest instalment of their recordings of the works of Roberto Gerhard. The concert suite from his ballet Alegrías is followed by Pedrelliana – a reworking of the last movement of his first symphony. The complete score of Don Quixote brings the album to a brilliant conclusion.
