BRETT DEAN
Composer and performer Brett Dean (viola) / Sydney Symphony Orchestra / Simone Young / Hugh Wolff [ BIS / CD - released 1/Jun/2008 ] "The concerto has plenty of good ideas - a brief, meditative introduction, a vivid hunt of soloist by orchestra, and finally a dank reverie, the elegiac quality of which is suffused with quasi-expressionist angst.

VARIOUS COMPOSERS
The Very Best of the Glasgow Orpheus Choir Glasgow Orpheus Choir, Sir Hugh Roberton [ Alto Records / CD - released 10/Jul/2017 ] "Choir fanciers starting out on an Orphean collection would do very well to start here.
