![William Alwyn: Mirages, Naiades / Luxon, Willison]()
William Alwyn: Mirages, Naiades / Luxon, Willison$20.99
A neglected corner of the Alwyn heritage rewardingly explored. Alwyn the polymath: artist, author, composer. Among these gifts music came foremost. The other skills drew on and were even the servants of the music. Writing...

![Vaughan Williams: The Sons Of Light; Holst, Parry]()
Vaughan Williams: The Sons Of Light; Holst, Parry$20.99
One of Parry's finest works, magnificently performed, and the best of the two available recordings of "The Sons of Light". This was the first recording of "The Sons of Light". When I reviewed the second...

![Vaughan Williams: Piano Concerto; Foulds: Dynamic Tryptich]()
Vaughan Williams: Piano Concerto; Foulds: Dynamic Tryptich$20.99
Sonically this was not one of Lyrita's best productions, with slightly dull piano sound and dense orchestral textures in works that are already quite thickly scored. The performances, though, are excellent. The single-piano version of...

Tippett: The Midsummer Marriage / Davis, Herincx, Et Al$37.99
It is as though Turner’s The Fighting Temeraire were not on show because no one could be bothered to clean it, or as though Wordsworth’s The Prelude had been allowed to go out of print....

Stanford: Cello Concerto, Piano Concerto No 3 / Baillie, Binns, Braithwaite$20.99
Other companies would have flinched from including two totally unknown works on one disc. Most would have dropped one of the two and dashed for the safety of buttressing the familiar with the unfamiliar. Not...

![Rubbra : Symphonies 3 & 4 / Del Mar, Philharmonia]()
Rubbra : Symphonies 3 & 4 / Del Mar, Philharmonia$20.99
Here is the ideal introduction to the music of Edmund Rubbra. The Third and Fourth symphonies (fine works, both) sandwich two shorter, but still impressive, orchestral works. Robert Layton provides a sterling example of a...

![Rubbra: Symphonies 2 & 7, Festival Overture / Handley, Boult]()
Rubbra: Symphonies 2 & 7, Festival Overture / Handley, Boult$20.99
Edmund Rubbra's first four symphonies tend to be hit or miss affairs, and the Second is arguably the best of them. Owing to a resolutely undramatic style, Rubbra's finales in particular tend to bog down...

Rawsthorne: Overture, Piano Concertos / Braithwaite, Binns$20.99

Premieres And Encores - Rawsthorne, Morgan, Warlock$20.99
The welcome bouquet of this motley crew of premieres and encores from the Lyrita stable. Pierson's discursive Macbeth tone poem has no specifically Scottish accent although there is the occasional bagpipe skirl. A memorable piece,...
