The music of English composer Lennox Berkeley provides the listener with a diverse, creative and inspired reflection on the artistic influences of his time. The skilful expertise of his technique juxtaposes the neo-classical with blues and the avant-garde with folk music. This recording includes the premiere recording of both the Violin Sonata no. 1 and Violin Sonata no. 2, in addition to the more familiar Introduction and Allegro, Theme and Variations, and Sonatina.
