All the scores in this series follow to the letter Grainger’s specific instructions as to the instrumentation.
As well as the expected Irish Tune from County Derry (The Londonderry Air) there is a very rare variant version included for organ and winds. It is not at all well-known and makes for fascinating points of comparison.
The Royal Norwegian Navy Band have starred for Naxos before, not least on some Sousa discs, about Volume 9 of which series (8559396) American Record Guide wrote: “Here is another excellent recording…the enthusiastic playing is always tasteful, never bombastic…The Royal Norwegian Navy Band sounds terrific.”
Another disc to be promoted is a recording of Geirr Tveitt’s music on 8572095 played by the band with the conductor of this Grainger disc, Bjarte Engeset – it received rave reviews; American Record Guide wrote; “This fascinating and dramatic music, played by an outstanding band, makes for an hour of terrific listening.”
