so do I Darren, and it compliments the Kennedy version rather well. the tempos are far more sprightly here, knocking off a full 5 minutes from the length of the concerto... and as usual, the Stad. Dresden are on top form..

I also own and enjoy that box set... his Viola Concerto is possibly my favourite piece...

These are both terrific performances and I thought that No. 7 was infused with a little more hope than usual.
I am glad you liked the disc. Naxos come up trumps once again!

^^ if I'm banned for posting the Gardiner cover Sean...

.... in the interests of maintaining the reputation of Tir Na as a website of taste, I don't think you should be allowed to post that box set image, either.. ;-)
