Coleridge-Taylor: Toussaint l’Ouverture (Avie)
Interesting, but probably not the best introduction to the composer’s works [MC]
Sibelius: Symphonies 3 & 6, Stravinsky: Violin Concerto (Avie)
(Déjà Review) A wonderful testament to the talents of the Northern Sinfonia [CC]

Tal, Kaufmann and Rubin: Orchestral Works (Avie)
Three works by unfamiliar composers, with much to commend them [DJB]

(Déjà Review) Sweet tuneful nostalgic delight – a must for Eric Coates admirers [IL]

(Déjà Review) Wallen is a brashly creative, open-minded composer striding with confident abandon from jazz, to Tippett, to spirituals, to Schoenberg, to Mediterranean mystery [RB]
