from Rubbra & Walton: Viola Concertos (CDA67587)
11 minutes 15 seconds 1 track
‘This was in many ways the breakthrough work in Walton's early career … Lawrence Power serves the work superbly … a superb disc, much to be welcomed’ (Gramophone)
‘Power's playing is stunningly precise, crisply articulated and beautifully projected, with no hint of the little scrambles and occasionally pinched tone that beset even quite famous rival recordings ...
‘Sumptuous playing from Lawrence Power … an excellent opportunity to savour the depth and richness of this Cinderella instrument’ (The Observer)
