Arnold, Malcolm : Concerto for Two Violins and String Orchestra

“. . .a craftsman-like and gracefully wrought work. . .The middle movement is particularly fine, a wistful slow waltz of lovely simplicity which begins and ends with a tranquil dialogue between the two unaccompanied violins. . .The last movement opens with the only real solo fireworks in the piece – a brilliant chase for the two instruments over steady rhythmic support from the accompanying strings.
