Concerto for Viola and Orchestra in C minor, op. 25

Album by Edwin York Bowen & Diyang Mei & Deutsche Radio Philharmonie Saarbrücken Kaiserslautern & Brett Dean

The Concerto for Viola and Orchestra in C minor, Op. 25 is a concerto by English composer York Bowen, composed in 1907. Rooted in late-Romantic idioms, the work features lyrical solo viola writing, rich harmonic language and orchestral colour that bridge Romantic warmth with early 20th-century sensibilities, and it occupies an early place in Bowen's concerto output while contributing to the viola repertoire of the period.
First released: 2024
