Digital Booklet

“The Piano Concerto of Vaughan Williams has been seriously undervalued… a performance as fine as this one from Ashley Wass will simply have one marvelling at the originality of the piece and its distinctive slant on the idea of a piano concerto.”
- Gramophone
“Ashley Wass's commanding way with the solo part is beautifully poised in the Romanza, while admirably resisting any temptation to smooth over the Toccata's hard edges. Both in the Concerto and in the more familiar territory elsewhere, James Judd secures orchestral accompaniments of brilliant colour and focus.”
- BBC Music Magazine
“Wass delivers the solo part with impressive command. Outstanding recorded sound.”
- Classic FM
Award-winning pianist Ashley Wass performs Vaughn Williams overlooked but thoroughly exuberant Piano Concerto in C Major on this Naxos release. He is joined by James Judd and the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra who also perform the English composer's witty incidental music for the Greek satire The Wasps, as well as the tuneful and enduringly popular English Folk Song Suite and The Running Set.
