BRITISH FLUTE CONCERTOS

摘要

Poulenc - British? Well no, but this appealing set of four 20th century works for flute and orchestra includes Sir Lennox Berkeley's transcription of his Flute Sonata, instigated by James Galway - a charming Gallic piece. Berkeley's own classically proportioned Concerto was first heard at a 1953 Prom. The Alwyn was originally scored for a wind ensemble then adapted by John McCabe.
