Notes & Reviews:

"Vernon Handley, of course, has unexcelled qualifications as an Elgarian; he and the Liverpool orchestra give the soloist splendid support. The engineers do their part, too. Given the unique provenance of these performances, comparisons to other recordings are almost irrelevant. If you love these two works, you'll hear them in ways that are fresh, powerful, and deeply revealing." -ARG
