Martyn Brabbins (Dir) // These three works, all written in the ten years either side of 1900, are typical of the Russian nationalist school with their colourful orchestration and often folk-inspired melodies. The other great hero in Lyapunov's life was Liszt and both the concertos are in a single multisectional movement as pioneered by the Hungarian. Their virtuosity too is Lisztian and there are many cadenza-like passages akin to those found in that master's concertos.
