Maconchy’s Nocturne is mysterious and dream-like, shifting gently and sometimes uneasily in its night-time landscape.
Walton’s Cello Concerto seems to inhabit the same musical universe. It starts with a ticking clock and ends by drifting into a reverie. In between is a restless, energetic sequence of thoughts before the calm of the finale.
Vaughan Williams’ First Symphony is his most immense, and is appropriately awestruck by the power of the sea. Through the orchestration and Walt Whitman’s poetry, the sea is given one of its most richly coloured portraits.
