A 'Don't Miss'

TM | Sellersville, PA | 04/24/2010

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Can't recommend this album highly enough. If you're a fan of the Hindemith style of Classical Expressionism than Hindemith's student Arnold Cooke is for you. Arnold Cooke was very much respected in his lifetime and praised on more than one occasion by fellow composer Havergal Brian Havergal Brian: Symphonies Nos. 6 & 16; Arnold Cooke: Symphony No. 3 (another British composer not to be overlooked). This performance of the Symphony no 1 also includes the wonderful ballet suite from Jabez and the Devil as well as the String Concerto in D. The music is brilliantly performed by the London Philharmonic Orchestra under the baton of Nicholas Braithwaite. Don't miss it, as its throughly enjoyable."
