| Variations on a Ukrainian Folksong | ||
| Alfred Lengnick & Co | ||
Sir Malcolm Arnold Orchestrated for strings by Roger Steptoe. ''The most striking piece is the set of Variations on a Ukrainian Folksong by Malcolm Arnold. Originally for piano solo, Arnold wrote it while he was still first trumpet in the LPO for a Ukrainian violinist colleague, John Kuchny. Here Roger Steptoe has arranged it very ably for strings, making a striking work from modest beginnings. Fascinatingly, the theme will be recognised by many listeners for its refrain 'Yes, my darling daughter'. Edward Greenfield, Gramophone, May 2008 |
