“Three resounding cheers for the appearance on CD at last of the three Thea Musgrave concertos. …some of the most convincing and thrilling orchestral pieces that have been written anywhere in the last few decades. The early 1970s performances have all the excitement of the new. Alexander Gibson and the Scottish National Orchestra deliver the Concerto for Orchestra with great panache; Musgrave herself takes over to support the poetic and authoritative Barry Tuckwell in the Horn Concerto. In the Clarinet Concerto, Gervase de Peyer and Norman Del Mar set some daringly fast tempos for the brilliant London Symphony Orchestra.”
