CD Reviews

Magnificent selection of British music--light and serious

06/13/2000

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Ah, the rarity of the following statement: This second edition outdoes the first by, well, a good kilometer--and that is no easy feat. Spirit of England II is a beautifully crafted, four-disc compliation of the finest in British neo-classical and light music (circa 1880-1980). There is the familiar (The Planets, Enigma Variations) and the less-so (Finzi's Ecologue, Elgar's The Wand of Youth). Add in the delightful (Ireland's Downland Suite minuet) and the achingly beautiful (Walton's "Touch Her Soft Lips and Part" string instrumental from his Henry V score) and you have over four hours of aural bliss."
