Composer:
George Dyson

Conductor:
David Lloyd-Jones

Background: Dyson's Symphony had to wait until the 1990s to achieve the recognition as one of the finest 20th-century British symphonies. Although the symphony opens and closes in a mood of pageantry from the world of his choral masterpiece, The Canterbury Pilgrims, it is also a work of troubled times and the distant rumble of war.

Passages of engimatic beauty and icy landscapes alternate with mock-courtly dance music and brilliant orchestral effects reminiscent of Sibelius, Borodin and Rimsky-Korsakov.

The Concerto da Camera is a work in the great tradition of English string compositions from Purcell to Tippett.
