Carwithen: Piano Concerto, Odtaa, Etc / Hickox, Shelley
When Chandos brought out this CD in the mid-1990s, it revealed Doreen Carwithen to be a substantial creative personality in her own right: she was a warmly communicative composer, the style of her work owing more to Walton than to her husband and colleague William Alwyn. Her writing is strong and purposeful, sometimes adopting syncopated rhythms and stirring melodies, and always enhanced with brilliant and inventive orchestration. We are therefore delighted to reissue these works and at mid-price for the first time.
