Coleridge-Taylor comes with a familiarity even on a first hearing (2008-09-02)

For me the interesting thing about Coleridge-Taylor is that there is a familiarity about his work on first hearing. I suspect this is because he was such a prominent composer in his day and greatly influenced contemporary and later composers. His tragedy was dying so young and so his fame was quickly outshone. I can almost guarantee that the Petite Suite de Concert will have a comfortable familiarity about it for you even though this will almost certainly be the first time you've heard it.

Enjoy This Bargain (2007-10-28)

To offer Coleridge-Taylor's two most popular works and a ten-minute bonus at CFP price is an outstanding bargain. Hiawatha's Wedding Feast, conducted by Sargent, is a well-known old record which needs no advocacy from me and the sound has cleaned up splendidly here. George Weldon's Petite Suite de Concert brings out the bitter-sweet quality of the music in abundance and Bamboula (which I hadn't heard before) makes a very tuneful bonus. If you want to know why SCT was so highly rated in his time, here's your answer.
