Young Russian virtuoso Yevgeny Sudbin has been hailed as an aristocrat among pianists in the mould of Rachmaninov himself. Here he takes on the fiendish Third Concerto: ‘any chance to hear him should be snapped up’ (Daily Telegraph) Sibelius’s haunting overture The Dryad gathers up moth-like fragments into a brief, halting dance. Soprano Lucy Hall and baritone Marcus Farnsworth join the orchestra in the spell-binding Andante pastorale of Nielsen’s 'Sinfonia espansiva'. Despite its title, it’s not the longest of his symphonies, its expansiveness is rather an expression of exhilarating life-force, launched as it is with a volley of 26 ‘A’s, the key in which it eventually ends, rising into radiance.
