description
Claire Howick already has exemplary discs of Cyril Scott and female composers to her credit, and her programme of British Music for Violin and Piano is no less fine. Commencing with an account of Elgar’s Violin Sonata whose formal tautness and expressive impetus banish any thought of passive fatalism, this otherwise consists of short pieces by that composer’s relative contemporaries. Notable are four pieces by Bridge previously unrecorded—a blithe Country Dance, fleeting Con moto, surging Une lamentation d’amour and eloquent Meditation—that together serve as reminder of his early music’s accessibility and finesse. Also here are two evocative sonnets by Scott; winsome miniatures by Delius and Ireland; and, to finish, Elgar’s robust Mazurka. The fastidious pianism of John Paul Ekins is a model of lucid and astute accompaniment. • Gramophone, March 2018
