Credits:

Dvorak

Description:

Among modern British composers, Finzi is becoming a special figure for the Japanese. His childhood was filled with hardships, the death of a close friend, and war. His music, created through these experiences, is imbued with an unparalleled lyricism and indomitable spirit, and the deep anguish that lies amidst the beauty of his music is sure to capture the hearts of the Japanese people. This "Finzi Anthology" box set includes the popular Cello Concerto, Eclogue, Clarinet Concerto, and a series of Finzi's quintessential vocal and religious choral works. This is a wonderful 8-CD set that offers a wide range of Finzi's music. Naxos Japan
