| |  | Elgar & Myaskovsky - Cello Concertos
Jamie Walton (cello) The Philharmonia Orchestra, Alexander Briger "I really cannot praise this performance too highly. Walton cannot be beaten. I shall treasure this recording - literally: I shall hoard it against a musically rainy day: I shall play it from time to time, to restore my faith in the work If I ever again have the misfortune to hear too many inadequate performances. It will, I am sure, do the job every time." The Elgar Society Journal Although conceived by utterly divergent characters in lands and times that
engender few similarities these days, the cello concertos by Elgar and
Myaskovsky make a fascinating coupling. Both men were in their early sixties
when writing what was their only concertante work for the instrument, and
the prevailing mood of both concertos is one of aristocratic wistfulness
married to a mastery of form and rhetoric.
Jamie Walton studied at Wells Cathedral School and the RNCM with
Margaret Moncrieff before taking private tuition with William Pleeth who
wrote of Jamie: "He is a cellist of outstanding performance ability. Combining warmth of tone with a technical command
that reaches dazzling proportions, he leaves little doubt as the success that lies ahead of him.” “One of the finest recordings of the Elgar. Jamie Walton has a formidable technique; his playing in the scherzo and the finale is beyond compare; and he captures the autumnal melancholy without loss of vitality. His pianissimos in the finale coda are a wonder. He has like-minded collaborators in
the Philharmonia and Alexander Briger, who also support him in Myaskovsky's sombre concerto of 1945.” Sunday Telegraph ***** | | | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days. |
