Review by Paul Coughlin

The album Britten Piano Concerto Saxton Music to Celebrate the Resurrection of Christ by Benjamin Britten, Robert Saxton, Joanna MacGregor, English Chamber Orchestra, The London Symphony Orchestra, and Steuart Bedford is a brilliant masterpiece that celebrates the resurrection of Christ in a unique and captivating way.

The album features a stunning performance by Joanna MacGregor, who skillfully plays the piano concerto composed by Benjamin Britten. MacGregor's performance is accompanied by the beautiful and powerful sounds of the English Chamber Orchestra and The London Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Steuart Bedford.

The album also includes Saxton Music, composed by Robert Saxton, which beautifully complements Britten's piano concerto. The Saxton Music is performed by the English Chamber Orchestra and showcases the ensemble's exceptional talent and musicianship.

About Benjamin Britten, Robert Saxton, Joanna MacGregor, English Chamber Orchestra, The London Symphony Orchestra, Steuart Bedford

British composer, conductor, and pianist. Born: November 22, 1913, in Lowestoft, UK - died: December 04, 1976, in Aldeburgh, UK. He showed talent from an early age, and first came to public attention with the a cappella choral work A Boy Was Born in 1934. With the premiere of his opera Peter Grimes in 1945, he leapt to international fame. For the next fifteen years he devoted much of his compositional attention to writing operas, establishing him as one of the leading 20th century figures in this genre. Britten's interests as a composer were wide-ranging; he produced important music in such varied genres as orchestral, choral, solo vocal (much of it written for the tenor Peter Pears), chamber and instrumental, as well as film music. He also took a great interest in writing music for children and amateur performers, and was a fine pianist and conductor. One of Britten's most important works, The War Requiem was completed 20 December 1961, and first performed 30 May 1962. Britten received many prizes and honors, including becoming a Companion of Honour in 1952, and a member of the Order of Merit in 1965.
