Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
It frankly beggars belief that a work as substantial and rewarding as Stanford's Violin Concerto in D (1899) should have lain unperformed for more than 80 years. It's a formidably confident, gloriously lyrical outpouring, comprising an expansive, elegantly plotted first movement Allegro, a central Canzona of frequently heart-stopping beauty, and a wittily exuberant jig-like finale, full of the most delightfully piquant orchestral colour. Anyone who fancies a change from the Brahms or Tchaikovsky fiddle concertos should certainly make a beeline to a work justly rated by Parry as one of Stanford's very best. The concerto was written for Enrique Fernandez Arbos (professor of violin at London's Royal College of Music), whereas the earlier, scarcely less-endearing Suite (1888) bears a dedication to the legendary virtuoso Joseph Joachim (whom Stanford had first met as a teenager in Dublin). These are passionately dedicated and scrupulously prepared performances from Anthony Marwood and the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra under Martyn Brabbins, both pieces coming up as freshly as the day they were conceived. The recording is excellent, sumptuous yet admirably clear. Do give this typically enterprising Hyperion coupling a try. --Andrew Achenbach
