Pianists Rebeca Omordia and Martin Jones present this album of world premiere recordings of works for piano and orchestra by three major composers.
Joining with the BBC Concert Orchestra and award- winning conductor John Andrews, Martin Jones continues his survey of the piano works of Elisabeth Lutyens with this recording of Eos (in which he performs the piano part) and Music for Piano and Orchestra, Op. 59. Jones also performs Elizabeth Maconchy’s concise and striking Dialogue for Piano and Orchestra.
Rebeca Omordia performs Errollyn Wallen’s arresting new Piano Concerto, that was commissioned for her by Julian Lloyd Webber and first performed in November of 2022.
"There's a wonderful economy of expression to Elizabeth Maconchy's Dialogue for Piano and Orchestra from 1941 (which like the rest of the programme receives its world premiere recording here...Performed with huge panache by its dedicatee Rebeca Omordia, Errollyn Wallen’s 2022 Piano Concerto makes for a lively finish, paying homage to Ravel in the opening movement and incorporating elements of blues and Eastern European folk-dance later on." - The Guardian, 30th March 2023
