4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent introduction to Moeran, but..., 6 Jun 2001
By A Customer
This disc is an excellent introduction to Moeran, from the exquisite Lonely Waters to the exuberant lyrical Violin Concerto, from the Elizabethan pastiche of Whythorne's Shadow to the brooding Cello Concerto.

And yet almost all of these recordings have been improved upon elsewhere. The Violin Concerto played by Georgiadis on a (deleted) Lyrita LP is a much warmer rendition. The Cello Concerto only really came to life for me when I heard Paul Watkins' 2000 BBC recording, alas for broadcast only. Lonely Waters is presented without the vocal ending that the composer preferred (he wrote an instrumental ending for performances without a singer present).

That said, these are good recordings of excellent music, and can more than satisfy - unless you've heard the others referred to here...

5.0 out of 5 stars Intense, beautifully crafted work by underrated composer, 26 April 2001
By Andrew R M Clarke (Sudbury, Suffolk United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
Anyone who wants a first taste of Moeran should buy this first. Moeran never pulled his punches, and the Cello concerto is a particularly poignant work that spoke of love and guilt in a very direct, bittersweet, way. All the works on this CD represent Moeran at his best, mixing phrases and ideas from the tradional music of Norfolk and Co. Kerry into a lyrical and expressive style that is instantly recognisable as Moeran's. Essential for anyone who likes British 'classical' music of the twentieth Century.
