Coleridge-Taylor
Elena Urioste (violin), Chineke! Orchestra
Chineke! play out of their boots on this marvellous collection showcasing the breadth of
Coleridge-Taylor's imagination and his gift for orchestration, from the evocative incidental
music for a 1912 production of Othello to the Hollywood-esque Ballade in A minor and the
lighter, occasionally slightly Impressionist Petite Suite de Concert from 1910, which closes
with a tarantella of disarming grace. Urioste is a commanding soloist in the expansive Violin
Concerto, composed for Maud Powell in the final year of Coleridge-Taylor's short life.

Debussy, Dukas & Roussel
Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra, Domingo Hindoyan
With razor-sharp ensemble, fabulously detailed textures and a keen awareness of the dance
impulses driving much of the music here, this debut recording from Domingo Hindoyan
suggests that he's already absolutely at home with his new orchestra: the many tempo-
changes in Debussy's Jeux feel absolutely organic rather than micro-managed,
Roussel's Bacchus et Ariane packs some real gut-punches, and the Faun's Afternoon has
rarely sounded so unashamedly sensual. I can't wait to hear what he'll do next...
