This review is from: British Chamber Music for Oboe & Strings (Audio CD)

This disc, full of superbly performed and very rare music, is a must own for lovers of 20th century Britain's musical creativity. All five works are beautiful and fascinating, from the middle of the road sounds of Rawsthorne and Routh to Lutyens' more radical (even in mellow mode) sounds.
The performances are wonderful and the sound recording is first rate.
The liner notes are concise and well written, but how can an editor have allowed the misspelling of Lutyens' first name on front and back covers and inside the booklet ? That is Elisabeth with an "s", Thank you very much !!!
