Brian/Foulds reissue

[Alan Howe]

...on Heritage, containing the Symphonic Movements from The Tigers by Brian and Foulds' Pasquinade Symphonique No.1:

The former sound - crudely put - like a cross between Busoni and Strauss (if that is possible), whereas the latter sounds like Elgar plus (and magnificent too). A disc of absolutely fascinating music.

Urgently recommended!

Thanks for alerting us, Alan. Good to have the 1st Pasquinade, the 2nd being on the splendid Lyrita disc devoted to Foulds, and I rather like the Tygers dances, so I think this disc will be heading my way.
