Our Take

The RTE Concert Orch and Robert Docker have teamed up to deliver a mixed bag of British Light Music on "Three Contrasts / Scenes De Ballet / Pastiche Variations - British Light Music / Vol. 7". This album is like the musical equivalent of a box of Quality Street - you never quite know what you're going to get next.

Opening track "Three Contrasts" is a jazzy romp through different musical styles, showcasing Docker's versatility as a composer. It's like taking a musical journey through time and space, with unexpected twists and turns that keep you on your toes.

"Scenes De Ballet" transports you to a whimsical world of dance and fancy, complete with swirling violins and fluttering flutes. It's like attending a lavish ball in a fairytale castle, where every note sparkles like a glass slipper.

But it's the "Pastiche Variations" that steal the show, with its clever nods to classic composers like Mozart and Beethoven. Docker effortlessly weaves together these musical influences into a delightful tapestry of sound, making for a truly entertaining listening experience.

Overall, "British Light Music / Vol. 7" is a delightful collection of musical treats that will appeal to both classical music connoisseurs and casual listeners alike. Docker and the RTE Concert Orch have crafted a whimsical, fun-filled album that is sure to brighten up your day. So go ahead, hit play and let the music take you on a magical journey. Cheers, mate!
