内容紹介
"This Lyrita release is most welcome--the coupling of Bax's first and last symphonic thoughts makes a good deal of sense. Both recordings still sound very well, and both performances are excellent. Returning to Leppard's Seventh, with the almost Elgarian breadth that he draws from the theme of its finale's variations, was an even more absorbing experience" - GRAMOPHONE
Bax was unique among British composers in creating a sound world that evokes a wild, romantic, legendary landscape. His seven symphonies are all pictures of northern seas and forests, bathed in mystical light. The 7th (1939) rounds off the series with a serene, autumnal epilogue.
