LANE, P.: Sleighbell Serenade / Prestbury Park Cotswold Dances / Diversions on a Theme of Paganini (Royal Ballet Sinfonia, Sutherland)
The works on this recording provide an excellent survey of Philip Lane’s compositions. London Salute was written to mark the sixtieth anniversary of the BBC and was first performed by the BBC Concert Orchestra, a frequent performer of his music. The Diversions on a Theme of Paganini, originally commissioned by the Three Choirs Festival for brass quintet, was re-written for orchestra in 2000. It is in turn lyrical and frivolous. The Cotswold Dances date from 1973 and are the earliest orchestral works which the composer is happy to acknowledge. They are partly inspired by childhood memories. The Divertissement for clarinet was commissioned by the performer on this recording, Verity Butler, and liberally quotes from earlier compositions. The Three Christmas Pictures were written during the 1980s and include the composer’s most popular work, Sleighbell Serenade, which has now been performed all over the world. Two of the remaining works on this entertaining disc have nautical connections, while Prestbury Park is an impression of Cheltenham racecourse, home of the world-famous Cheltenham Gold Cup.
