Excellent soloists from the Barcelona orchestra present two works from the 1970s by the doyen of Catalan composers, Montsalvatge – a somewhat cryptic Serenade for flute that gets going only after a lengthy cadenza with much toying with tricksy tuning of a single note, and a busily atonal Concerto capriccio for harp (with plenty of percussion effects) – and the virtuosic, invigorating and highly inventive 1995 Trombone Concerto by his pupil, the talented Salvador Brotons, which frankly is a great deal more worthwhile musically. But the most immediately attractive work here is the Saxophone Concerto written by Lluis Benejam in 1967, a year before his death – an absolute winner that deserves to be widely taken up, which I hope the incomparable John Harle will do.'
