Reviews

  • Plenty of good sounds on offer, especially in the two pieces by Richard Harvey, the conductor. These, together with the Gesualdo, were my own favourites

    Gramophone
  • Roger Chase conjures the most gorgeous tone from the Montagnana viola that once belonged to Lionel Tertis…While a student at the RCM, Chase was a roommate of Richard Harvey, whose Reflections (2012) is a comprehensive reworking of a concerto originally commissioned for the 1990 Exeter Festival. An accomplished and consistently rewarding piece it is, too

    Gramophone
  • Performed by the incomparable instrumental soloist Michala Petri… From the dramatic opening of Harvey's Concerto Incantanto through the pastoral meanderings of Jacob's Suite for Recorder and Strings, this is the music of European myth and history. Recommended

    Scene
  • There are currently 20-30 recordings of Rodrigo’s work (Fantasia para un Gentilhombre) in the catalogue, and, given that quite a few other guitarists have the requisite technique (if not Williams’s polished mastery), there is no good reason why the same should not be the case with Harvey’s Concerto Antico, a work of great charm and high quality
