What exciting news! I am very fond of Dyson, and it's wonderful to see how he has gone from being a minor footnote in British music histories to having all his major works recorded. Quo Vadis is a masterpiece, I think, and so is The Canterbury Pilgrims, in its lighter way. The Violin Concerto is one of my very favourite works in that genre (where there is considerable competition).
