Our Take

The BBC National Orchestra of Wales, conducted by the enigmatic Ben Palmer, delivers a delightful dose of nostalgia with "Rediscovered: British Clarinet Concertos." Featuring the talents of Peter Cigleris on clarinet and Deian Rowlands on cello, this album showcases lesser-known works by composers Dolmetsch, Maconchy, Spain-Dunk, and Wishart.

Opening with Dolmetsch's enchanting concerto, the orchestra transports listeners to a bygone era of elegance and sophistication. Cigleris' virtuosity on the clarinet is nothing short of mesmerizing, weaving effortlessly through the intricate melodies with grace and precision.

Maconchy's concerto offers a refreshing change of pace, with its bold, dynamic movements and unexpected twists and turns. The orchestra shines in capturing the composer's eclectic style, from pulsating rhythms to hauntingly beautiful harmonies.

Spain-Dunk's contribution to the album is a hidden gem, a true showcase of the clarinet's versatility and expressiveness. Cigleris breathes life into every note, his emotive playing drawing listeners in and holding them captive until the very last chord.

Wishart's concerto brings the album to a triumphant close, with its majestic melodies and epic scope. The orchestra rises to the occasion, unleashing a tidal wave of sound that washes over the audience in a glorious wave of musical ecstasy.

In conclusion, "Rediscovered: British Clarinet Concertos" is a must-listen for any classical music aficionado looking to uncover hidden treasures from the British music scene. Bravo to the BBC National Orchestra of Wales and all involved for bringing these forgotten masterpieces back to life with such passion and finesse.
