I went to the premiere. I still prefer his Violin Concerto No.1 (Glass).

Marriner in Bruckner 0 is surprisingly wonderful - I must explore more Marriner -- I now recall a great Eroica.

What do you think of it John?
I'm not a great fan of the Elgar no matter who is playing it, and SKM plays it very well no doubt. I just find it a bit too emotionally 'gushing' ...

Absolutely.
The Walton is much more interesting to me, I hope you like it.

I like both. Not keen on du Pre in the Elgar, imo she over-emotes in a very emotive work making it OTT. The Walton cello concerto is horrid. --------------- Enjoying this at the moment - cool, dispassionate, but somehow quite compelling
