Autumn Legend (1954) is a highly atmospheric tone-poem, very Sibelian in feeling. So too is the Pastoral Fantasia, yet the piece has its own developing individuality. The Tragic Interlude is a powerful lament for the dead of wars past. But the highlight of this disc is the Lyra Angelica, a radiantly beautiful, extended piece (just over half an hour in length) inspired by the metaphysical poet Giles Fletcher’s ‘Christ’s victorie and triumph’. The performance here is very moving, and the recording has great richness of string tone and a delicately balanced harp texture. Rachel Masters’s contribution is distinguished. The classic Lyrita recording of Autumn Legend and Lyra Angelica, under the direction of the composer, is still also available on SRCD 230. 作者: 吴迪00后 时间: 2025-3-27 12:34
