Adrian LeaperAbout
This is another release in the British Light Music series, and is a reissue of Marco Polo originally released in July 1995. The Penguin Guide gave it a strong three-star award writing ‘performances and recording are excellent’. ‘These are commendable and affectionate performances from the RTÉ Concert Orchestra under Adrian Leaper’s spirited lead and with very good recorded sound’ (Gramophone). This disc will be released in the 110th anniversary year of Coleridge-Taylor’s death.
Recent release in this series featured Ronald Binge (Vol.2 on 8555190). ‘These idiomatic performances remind us why so much of Binge’s music was chosen for radio and TV theme tunes, now forgotten, but the music retains its appeal and this reissue does it credit. Roll on the rest of these re-releases’ (MusicWeb International). Adrian Leaper’s earlier recording of Eric Coates was released in November 2021 (Vol.4 on 8555178).
