Ruth Gipps, The BBC National Orchestra Of Wales, Rumon Gamba - Symphonies Nos 2 4 Etc

Review by Alen Tardif

The album Symphonies Nos 2 4 Etc by Ruth Gipps, The BBC National Orchestra Of Wales, Rumon Gamba is a stunning display of orchestral music. The album features symphonies composed by Ruth Gipps, a British composer and oboist, who is known for her unique style that blends traditional and contemporary elements.

The BBC National Orchestra Of Wales, under the direction of Rumon Gamba, delivers a powerful performance in each of the symphonies. The orchestra's sound is rich and full, and the musicians' technical skill is evident in every note they play.

Symphony No. 2 is a standout track on the album. The piece is full of energy and movement, and the orchestra captures the excitement of the music perfectly. The second movement, in particular, is a beautiful example of Gipps' ability to create a sense of atmosphere and mood through her music.

Symphony No. 4 is another highlight of the album. The piece is more introspective and contemplative than Symphony No. 2, but it is no less powerful. The orchestra's performance is sensitive and nuanced, and the piece is a beautiful showcase of Gipps' compositional talent.
