Recorded recently in UCH, Limerick, Van Maldere’s ‘Dublin’ set of six symphonies mark possibly the earliest known symphonies to be written and performed in Ireland. Fizzing with energy, the listener has the sense of a composer revelling in all the tools at his disposal in this new and exciting form. Mozart’s Horn Concerto K447, with IBO Principal Horn Anneke Scott as soloist. Finally, one of the best known gems in the symphonic repertoire, Mozart’s expansive and joyful Symphony No.39.
Liz Nolan presents a showcase of unabridged musical masterworks, featuring live recordings of Irish and international performers, plus selections from the latest CD releases.
