Works for Piano and Orchestra by Maconchy, Lutyens and Wallen released by Resonus Classics
This exciting new disc from Resonus Classics features works for Piano and Orchestra by Elizabeth Maconchy, Elisabeth Lutyens (soloist Martin Jones) and Errollyn Wallen (soloist Rebeca Omordia) with John Andrews conducting the BBC Concert Orchestra. All works are premiere recordings. “The BBC Concert Orchestra bounce off the coiled spring of Martin Jones’s piano playing as moments of reflective beauty shine through in previously unrecorded works.” Erica Jeale, The Guardian “Rebecca Omordia takes over the keyboard for Errollyn Wallen’s very recent (2020) Piano Concerto..Walen is an accomplished pianist in her own right, so her writing is beautifully laid out for the instrument…The BBC Concert Orchestra provide spot-on accompaniments throughout under John Andrews’s firm direction.” Guy Richards, Gramophone
