Awards and reviews
March/April 2021
Kenneth Woods gives impressive readings of these two symphonies. That ending to the Fifth requires a real feeling for the music’s sense of muted drama, and Woods knows exactly how to handle it. He also has a good feel for Taylor’s expressive but not overtly Romantic milieu, and for the long lines that articulate his structural thinking...a fascinating release.
