(GB pounds 14.50)

This latest release from Kiwi Pacific joins their earlier recordings of music by New Zealand's foremost composer, Douglas Lilburn. All of the music on this disc was composed between 1939 and 1950 and have the distinctive rich voice for which he has become renowned.

Rob Barnett for Classical Music on the Web - "The Aotearoa Overture is candidly, even proudly, Sibelian. The material and the method bears closest resemblance to the lucidly limned string and wind figures from the Finn's Sixth Symphony. It is irresistible and for all its monothematicism is neatly put together; a fit travelling companion for Moeran's Overture to a Masque and Copland's Outdoor Overture. The 1968 recording stands up very well. The gravely-toned command of the brass and the pert woodwind playing stand out.

The Festival Overture's nervy ostinati lean to Sibelius's Third Symphony this time but the rictus of Walton's First Symphony is an unmistakably imperious influence. Did I also detect the goose-shiver of an East Anglian squall five years before the Grimes premiere?

A very fine disc with music by a freshly inspired lyrico-dramatic talent whose music deserves to travel."

DOUGLAS LILBURN: A Song of Islands
Drysdale Overture; A Song of Islands; Suite for Orchestra; A Birthday Offering; Prodigal Country
New Zealand Symphony Orchestra, Conductors: John Hopkins, Sir Charles Groves; with David Griffiths (baritone),
Orpheus Choir of Wellington
CDSLD100
(GB pounds 14.50)

Rob Barnett for Classical Music on the Web - "Prodigal Country is the longest work on the disc at 17.45. It is a setting of words by NZ poets Allen Curnow and Robin Hyde alongside Whitman's 'Song of Myself'. Full texts are printed in the booklet. From a few months after the start of the Second World War it is a return to the ambience of Vaughan Williams (Whitman was much favoured by VW) and Sibelius (all those intense high violin tremolandi). Groves and his forces plunge into the work with verve and fervour.

Marginally to be preferred over Continuum's disc. While the strongest Lilburn is to be found in the three symphonies and the piano music this is ameritorious collection for the Lilburn listener who wonders what lies in the further recesses. By no means a barrel-scraping exercise and much pleasure is to be had by those in sympathy with the works of Sibelius and RVW from Drysdale, Song of Islands, Birthday Offering and Prodigal Country.

The world-renowned bass, Inia Te Wiata, was born in 1915 and died in 1971. Although mainly known in the opera houses of Europe, he also had a wide recital repertoire and this discs collects together many of the non-operatic recordings made in New Zealand in the 1960s and in London in 1955. His finely textured bass voice was able to inhabit a wide range of musical repertoire from art song to negro spiritual.

Tully Potter in Summer 2001 Classical Record Collector - "New Zealand was lucky to produce two such strong basses as Oscar Natzka (1912 - 1951) and Inia Te Wiata (1915 - 1971) within three years of each other. He, Te Wiata, was a pleasant modest man who paid due respect to the influence of Natzka; he was also a magnificent singer. Four spirituals, and eight West Indian spirituals come from a New Zealand LP and are marvellous...Here is a most enjoyable disc."

This first organ recording in New Zealand, made in 1989, has been unavailable for a long time and presents the only recordings of music by Alkan played on the organ. These pieces for pedal piano or organ were written between 1832 and 1838 and the technical demands are, as usual with Alkan, highly original. Alkan was an accomplished organist and won première prix for organ at the Paris Conservatoire in 1834, graduating from Francois Benoît's organ class along with César Franck. English-born organist John Wells emigrated to New Zealand in 1969 having studied with David Willcocks and been an organ scholar at King's College Cambridge.
