"... Alsop shows a keen sensitivity to both scores and balances their rhetoric with the clean-edged clarity of their textures."

Marin Alsop conducts the Royal Scottish National Orchestra and solo cellist Wendy Warner on these works by Samuel Barber. The Cello Concerto is offered together on this album with a suite from the ballet music for Medea, originally written for Martha Graham. Best known of all Barber's music is his evocative Adagio for Strings, a work of deep feeling that has earned a firm place in American repertoire.
