Amazon.com You can hear the German Romantic backbone of Stanford's music, particularly Brahms, in his Symphony No. 7. But Stanford doesn't merely ape the Germans; he brings his own rich tunefulness from years of gathering Irish, English, and Welsh folk songs. What you end up with is very robust English Romanticism, the kind that will launch Vaughan Williams, Elgar, Walton, and a patch of others. The Irish Rhapsody 3 is for cello and orchestra and is based on two Irish folk songs. The disc concludes with the Concert Piece for Organ and Orchestra, a rousing crowd- pleaser. Chandos has produced a great series. --Paul Cook
