Peter Mattei (baritone) & Monica Groop (mezzo-soprano) Gentlemen of the London Symphony Chorus & London Symphony Orchestra, Sir Colin Davis "a blistering performance … Groop was heart-rending in her description of her abandonment as a child, and Sibelius's orchestration was fabulously imaginative, with a passage of shimmering woodwind trills depicting the sounds of the forest. Mattei's horrified response was equally powerful, accompanied by shattering dissonances in the orchestra." The Guardian | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |
