Prior: Velesslavitsa Toccata Classics - TOCC0109 Live Recording 2009, Remastered The British-Russian composer was c.16, the pianist 10, and the string players in between. The music is neo-Russian Romantic and Prior surely has a great future in the film music & TV business, being obviously a very capable musician and an effective conductor, vouched for by the orchestra. The poise and responsiveness in ensemble of young Zhang make this a disc to hear and share with your families, especially if they include and aspiring musicians. A pity Toccata doesn't have access to the video; it would (will?) be twice as attractive as a DVD. Peter Grahame Woolf Video of last movement on YouTube "blocked in UK for copyright reasons" [EDITOR]
