This release completely passed me by, to my surprise as after the revelation of his recent Mendelssohn recording, I'm becoming a bit of a fan of EG. I read the glowing review in the BBC MM (which unusually I bought due to the interesting Gurney/Bridge cover disc) and felt like acquiring it instantly... Recording of the Month, http://www.classical-music.com/monthly-choice/walton
But then the Guardian damns with faint praise http://www.theguardian.com/music/201...r-bbcso-little
Prestoclassical is positive http://www.prestoclassical.co.uk/new...ate=2014-04-21, MusicWeb calls it "a recording worthy to stand with the very best"
Anyone heard it?
This piece has been crying out for the ideal performance - none has ever quite done it as the piece goes in my head
I know, I know, I should just buy it and make my own mind up. And I probably shall.
Anyone snapped it up?
I guess it will find its way on to CD Review at some point...
