Our Take

CALLUS / NZ SO / TADDEI's album "British Music For Viola & Orchestra" is a tantalizing trip through the world of classical music with a modern twist. The viola, often overshadowed by its flashy cousin, the violin, takes center stage in this album, proving once and for all that it deserves its time in the spotlight.

From the moment the opening notes of Elgar's "Romance for Viola and Orchestra" hit your ears, you know you're in for a treat. The New Zealand Symphony Orchestra, under the skilled direction of conductor Kenneth Young, provides a lush and emotive backdrop for soloist Roger Taddei's virtuosic performance on the viola. Taddei's playing is nothing short of breathtaking, with each note ringing out clear and true, capturing the listener's attention from start to finish.

But it's not all serious business here. CALLUS / NZ SO / TADDEI injects a healthy dose of playfulness into the mix with works by 20th-century British composers like Britten and Walton. The jazzy rhythms and unexpected harmonies keep things interesting, making this album a joy to listen to from beginning to end.

In short, "British Music For Viola & Orchestra" is a must-listen for classical music enthusiasts and newcomers alike. So sit back, relax, and let the magic of the viola sweep you off your feet. You won't be disappointed.
