CD Reviews

2 For 1 CD is Ultimate bargan.

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This is a 2 CD set that combines Howell's previously released Chandos Orchestral Works Volume 1 and 2.

Which makes this an Ultimate Bargain.

Because this is the most Glorious and Beautiful English orchestral and String music this side of Vaughan-Williams.

The recording is Spectacular as is expected from Chandos.

I won't go into detail about the compositions or performance here. Instead go to the listings for the single CD editions where other reviewers have been more eloquent than I could ever be.

I do know what i hear though. This music is mostly Pastoral, Rapturous and Beautiful.

If you LOVE Vaughan-Williams, you will wonder why you've never given Howells a shot. Better late than never...Go Now and get this CD..."
