About this product

Vol. 3 in our successful series with Music for Strings by British Composers features works by four important Women Composers, some of whom initially were underappreciated and whose music only later was performed again and received proper recognition. However, the period from 1893 to 1934 was still an extremely favorable time for British women composers who wanted to present their works on their country's concert stages inasmuch as they could count on support principally from Sir Henry Wood at the Proms and Dan Godfrey in Bournemouth. Ethel Smyth (familiar to our listening audience from cpo albums with works by her) and Susan Spain-Dunk in particular profited from this support. In addition, this presents recording premieres of string compositions by Constance Warren and Ruth Gipps, in part in editions by the conductor Douglas Bostock himself. On Vol. 3 the Southwest German Chamber Orchestra of Pforzheim once again Inchexplores the works with a lot of understanding for the particular personal style and with a fine sense of sound. Douglas Bostock knows how to bring out manifold colors from the orchestra and also, when needed, how to sharpen the tone and to place the sonority of the whole in the foregroundInch (klassik. Com 4/2021 of Vol. 2). Album Tracks 1. Suite for Strings Op. 1A~Allegro con brio 2. Suite for Strings Op. 1A~Andantino poco allegretto 3. Suite for Strings Op. 1A~Scherzo Allegro vivace 4. Suite for Strings Op. 1A~Adagio con moto 5. Suite for Strings Op. 1A~Allegro con moto 6. Suite for String Orchestra~Prelude (Moderato) 7. Suite for String Orchestra~Interlude (Allegretto - meno mosso - Tempo I) 8. Suite for String Orchestra~Romance (Andante con espress.) 9. Suite for String Orchestra~Scherzo (Presto e spicato) con sord 10. Suite for String Orchestra~Finale (Lento a non troppo - Allegro moderato) 11. Heather Hill for string

Tasmin Little and Piers Lane complete their three-album overview of British violin sonatas with works by York Bowen, John Ireland, William Alwyn, Eric Coates, and the world premiere recording of James Francis Brown's The Hart's Grace. Composed for the inaugural Hertfordshire Festival of Music, the work was premiered by Tasmin in Hertford in June 2016. The central premise of The Hart's Grace is the emotional transformation experienced by a restless observer when encountering the almost magical, elusive freedom of the deer. John Ireland composed his Second Sonata between 1915 and 1917, dedicating it to Albert Sammons who gave the premiere. Alwyn's Sonatina dates from 1933, whilst the Coates and Bowen pieces were both composed during the Second World War (1943 and 1945 respectively). Coates's First Meeting was commissioned by Lionel Tertis and originally conceived for viola, but it was revised for violin for it's publication (in 1943). Album Tracks 1. I. Maestoso - Allegro Commodo 2. II. Lento Ad Libitum E Languido - Tempo Poco Lento - Poco Più Andante - Poco Più Mosso 3. III. Allegro Con Fuocu 4. I. Allegro 5. II. Poco Lento Quasi Adagio 6. III. in Tempo Moderato - Con Brio 7. The Hart's Grace 8. I. Allegro E Grazioso 9. II. Adagio 10. III. Vivace 11. First Meeting, Souvenir (Version for Violin and Piano)
