Our Take

Duncan Honeybourne's latest album, "GREVILLE COOKE / HOLST / VAUGHAN WILLIAMS A Forgotten English Romantic," takes listeners on a whimsical journey through the often overlooked world of English Romantic music. This collection of forgotten gems shines a light on the works of composers like Greville Cooke, Holst, and Vaughan Williams, who may not be as well-known as their counterparts across the pond.

From the hauntingly beautiful melodies of Cooke's piano pieces to the orchestral grandeur of Holst's compositions, Honeybourne effortlessly captures the essence of each composer's unique style. His virtuosic piano playing brings these hidden treasures to life, allowing listeners to experience the full breadth of emotion and expression in each piece.

One standout track on the album is Vaughan Williams' "The Lake in the Mountains," a serene and tranquil piece that transports listeners to a peaceful English countryside. Honeybourne's interpretation of this piece is nothing short of mesmerizing, with each note carrying a sense of nostalgia and longing.

In a music industry dominated by chart-topping hits and flashy production, "GREVILLE COOKE / HOLST / VAUGHAN WILLIAMS A Forgotten English Romantic" serves as a reminder of the beauty and complexity of classical music. Honeybourne's passion for these forgotten composers is evident in every note, making this album a must-listen for any fan of English Romantic music. So sit back, relax, and let Duncan Honeybourne take you on a journey through the hidden gems of the English Romantic era.
