In Ireland - Orchestral Works By Hamilton Harty
3 discs for the price of 2!
This is the third reissue of Chandos' set of Hamilton Harty's complete orchestral works, and if you haven't heard this incredibly derivative but equally incredibly charming composer you're in for a treat. The influences range from DvorƔk (Irish Symphony) to Rachmaninov (Piano Concerto), with plenty of Irish color in evidence everywhere else--but the one constant is Harty's skill at orchestration and general level of craftsmanship. The performances, featuring Bryden Thomson and the Ulster Orchestra in their first flush of success, have not been surpassed. It's a little sad to hear a set like this and recall just how exciting a label Chandos was at the time, how much new music there was to savor, and what a pace-setter these recordings were technically. Whether you listen out of nostalgia or simply to find something new and interesting, by all means do listen!
