Now.....
Sir Peter Maxwell Davies's Strathclyde Concertos Nos. 7 and 8 on the recent Naxos reissue:
http://www.prestoclassical.co.uk/r/Naxos/8572355Both concertos are quite tough works but nevertheless perfectly "accessible"....but the real treasure on this disc for me is the absolutely marvelllous, tuneful and gloriously impressive "A Spell for Green Corn: The MacDonald Dances" for Violin and Orchestra of 1993. This must be one of Maxwell Davies's most "accessible" works but it is really a revelation to me :)
Incidentally, with Concertos Nos. 9 and 10 due out next month, that just leaves the Strathclyde Concerto No.1 for Oboe and Orchestra to come from Naxos. I am presuming that the company will seek to couple it with "The Beltane Fire" from 1995, a substantial work at 37 minutes and a former Collins recording.
