Album review: Shostakovich: 'Leningrad' Symphony No. 7

Reviews: Classical: RLPO/ Altrichter: Philharmonic Hall, Liverpool (4/ 5 stars)
The Czech composer Bohuslav Martinu never really felt at home in the US: at times he hated it and felt desperate to leave. Yet his years there were richly productive, leaving a legacy of six symphonies, all the fruit of his mature style. The Sixth, subtitled Fantasies symphoniques, was a new departure - as he put it, \"less geometrical\" in its construction than his previous works. Its magical, wayward tone is more suggestive of an orchestral fantasy than a symphony, and its constant shifting of tone from darkness to light makes its moods difficult to pin down.

Rorem: Flute Concerto, Violin Concerto ; Jeffrey Khaner, flute; Philippe Quint, violin; Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra, Jose Serebrier, conductor (Naxos)
\"Concerto\" seems a misnomer for the works that share this new Naxos disc. Actually Ned Rorem's concertos for flute (2002) and violin (1985) are more like suites for solo instrument and orchestra than concertos in any traditional sense. Both are cast in six brief movements that bear such titles as \"The Stone Tower,\" \"False Waltz,\" \"Twilight,\" \"Midnight\" and \"Dawn.\" The soloists typically engage in lyrical dialogues with various combinations of instruments.
