Title: Orchestral Music 2
Artist: Johnson / Royal Scottish National Orch
Label: Toccata
Product Type: COMPACT DISCS
UPC: 5060113444523
Genre: Classical

The orchestral music of the English composer David Hackbridge Johnson (b. 1963) is one of the most important discoveries to have been made by Toccata Classics. This second volume brings two mighty symphonies: the dark and tragic No. 10 (2013), cast in a single monumental span, and the three-movement No. 13 (2017), a fierce and fiery affirmation of life. They are complemented here by an orchestral 'motet' which passes plainchant in kaleidoscopic review. Writing in Gramophone, Guy Rickards said of Hackbridge Johnson's Ninth Symphony: "what is so astonishing is not his ambition in attempting such large, big-boned structures... but that he possesses the compositional technique to achieve them so completely... This is a profound, complex, and visionary utterance." Paul Mann, who here leads the Royal Scottish National Orchestra, is a regular guest conductor with many orchestras throughout Europe, the USA, Australia and the Far East. He enjoyed a famous collaboration with the legendary rock group Deep Purple and was a close friend of it's keyboardist Jon Lord. He first came to international attention as first prizewinner in the Donatella Flick Conducting Competition, and as a result was appointed assistant conductor of the London Symphony Orchestra. This is his twelfth project with Toccata Classics.
