★★★★
Britten: Four Sea Interludes from Peter Grimes, Op. 33a
Elgar: Cello Concerto in E minor, Op. 85
Rachmaninov: Symphonic Dances, Op. 45
Britten: 'Some excellent woodwind playing here (a feature of the evening), weaving around the viola and cello theme'.
Elgar: 'Isserlis’ Elgar was commanding, intense and passionate, and his presence and audience communication was engaging'.
Rachmaninov: '... exceptional quality of the woodwind playing throughout. With much solo work, as well as extensive ensemble passages, the entire section was as sharp as a pin tonight'.
'An intelligent and engaging reading of this somewhat underrated score'.
