Tremendous string music that could almost be the natural companion to Holst's "Brook Green Suite". Transcendent stuff!! Excellent disc from Naxos in a series of familiar and rare works....

Max Merry it could well be a companion piece with Brook green. Also notice the hints of ravel in there somewhere.

Max Merry yes he did and vw was a lot older than M Ravel wasn't he?.. I had a 45rpm lp that featured the above in its original piano form including real esoteric vw like the lake in the mountains. And now I shall lose all my credibility when I say that for the first year or so I never noticed that it was 45rpm and played it at 33rpm and do you know I still prefer the 6 piano pieces played at this slower rate. Please don't tell anyone else .. I wonder if anyone else was as thick. Ha ha.😁

@@jamessmethurst3537 , Your secret's safe with me! You're right about RVW's being older than his "tutor". I think it would have only been a matter of time before RVW got there himself but Ravel certainly got him "kick-started".....

Max Merry ravel the consumate orchestrator - but one of my favourite pieces is le tombeau de couperin in the piano version. Especially when played by vlado perlemuter . The best interpreter of Ravel's piano works? I think so. And my favourite vw? Flos campi.
