George Lloyd String Concertos: Stripped-down Masterworks
Cristina Anghelescu performs the two violin concertos. Her instrument has a warm, rich tone. The first concerto from 1970 is sweet and sentimental. Anghlelescu delivers with ravishing lyricism.
Joan Tower scores a hit with Strike Zones
These works were more than just an exhibition of beats. Tower uses her solo instruments percussively. But she also uses them expressively.
