Alexander Goehr : Behold the Sun/ Romanza



Goehr's neo-classical works - Bach tribute ...a musical offering (JSB 1985)... and Sinfonia - plus the dazzling coloratura aria Behold the Sun, the Romanza for cello and orchestra, and the vivid variation-set Metamorphosis/Dance.

"Moments of ear-catching, rarefied beauty"
BBC Music Magazine 2004
