Va, pensiero (from Nabucco)


At four in the afternoon a single blast of cannon fire signals the opening of the gates of many a stately home in summer and thousands of picnickers pour into grounds, set up camp and prepare to listen to preordained set of classical hits.

This is a re-issue of an album first issued 1992 celebrating the years that Carl conducted Summer Concerts it is a unique collection of popular works presented in unfamiliar but stunning arrangements.

Finlandia is recorded adding a new choral arrangement with an fervently patriotic American text.

The 1812 Overture recorded with a choral arrangement using Tsarist text.

Pomp and Circumstance March No.1 sung with its ‘Land of Hope and Glory’ text.

Elgar’s outrageously elaborate arrangement of Parry’s Jerusalem.

The version of Souza’s Stars and Stripes March is arranged by David Cullen into an orchestral explosion.

Recorded in Abbey Road Studios this is a memorable album of Carl conducting Classical Festival Favourites.

Maxwell Davies: Trumpet Concerto

Maxwell Davies: Trumpet Concerto


Davies, Maxwell:

Trumpet Concerto

John Wallace (trumpet)

Royal Scottish National Orchestra

Piccolo Concerto

Stewart McIlwham (piccolo)

Royal Philharmonic Orchestra

Maxwell’s Reel, with Northern Lights

Royal Philharmonic Orchestra

Five Klee Pictures

Philharmonia Orchestra


Peter Maxwell Davies

Originally written for children, the Five Klee Pictures are anything but childish. Recorded by its dedicatee, Stewart McIlwham, the remarkable Piccolo Concerto displays both the lyrical and mercurial sides of the instrument. Also performed by its dedicatee, John Wallace, the powerful Trumpet Concerto here receives its definitive recording. Maxwell’s Reel, with Northern Lights inhabits worlds comparable with the popular An Orkney Wedding with Sunrise (8572352).

“This latest Naxos release of Davies recordings from the defunct Collin Classics catalogue is rich in concertos. The one for piccolo (1996) is itself diminutive: three little movements that capture the instrument’s spirit quite uncannily, particularly the pizzicato-haunted central adagio...Five Klee Pictures are among the most felicitous of Davies’s works for children” Sunday Times, 10th February 2013

“Conducting three excellent orchestras across an eight-year period, the Master of the Queen's Music makes sure his is done the right way for posterity.” MusicWeb International, 23rd April 2013

Concerto for Clarinet and String Orchestra

Michael Whight (clarinet)

Concertino for Flute and Small Orchestra

Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, Christopher Gunning

Christopher Gunning’s career spans four decades as a composer of Music for films, television, and the concert hall. His output includes seven symphonies and concertos for the piano, flute, oboe, clarinet, saxophone and guitar. Three of the concerto compositions appear on this new CD. Three accomplished musicians perform on this recording – Craig Ogden, whose Classic FM albums went straight to No.1 in the UK classical charts. Michael Whight, currently principle clarinettist with the RPO and Catherine Handley (widow of Vernon Handley), who plays regularly with the English Symphony Orchestra, Welsh Sinfonia and the Welsh Concert Orchestra.

“With the composer an ardent conductor inspiring compelling performances of all three works, it is an admirable disc to show off Christopher Gunning's still under-appreciated gifts.” Gramophone Magazine, March 2013
