Jane Manning, Stephen Varcoe, City of London Sinfonia, Richard Hickox - Nigel Osborne: Ancora

While I Am Goya, The Sickle and Remembering Esenin share a common inspiration in Russian poetry of the last century, the Flute Concerto provides a contrast in its neo-Baroque concerto grosso style.

These recordings were originally released on Unicorn-Kanchana in 1983. Reissued with funding from Arts Council England.


Reviews:

"A welcome re-issue: The Concerto for Flute and Chamber Orchestra, one of Osborne's best scores and, indeed, one of the best flute concertos, alternates between glassy explosiveness and glassy calm."
The Sunday Times 2003
