The rediscovery of the music of the Edinburgh composer Charles O’Brien (1882–1968) continues with this third CD of his orchestral music. The explicitly Scottish Ellangowan Overture contrasts splendid Caledonian vistas with some wonderfully catchy tunes, and in the two suites O’Brien skilfully combines a naturally symphonic voice with an unexpected sense of fun.
