In the 1990s I was a keen collector of Hyperion's Romantic Piano Concerto series.  A disc that delighted me was the 1997 release of Vol.15: the Massenet and Hahn Piano Concertos.  I knew and loved Massenet's Manon, originally from an English National Opera Radio 3 broadcast in the late 1970's of an English translation version.  However, I had never heard of Reynaldo Hahn.

I subsequently acquired a disc of both Hahn's Piano and Violin Concertos, and my initial impression of the Violin Concerto was of a pretty superficial piece.  However, for some reason, in 2015 or 2016, I returned to the CD and really liked the Violin Concerto, considering it lyrical and memorable music.  I found on the internet Henryk Szeryng perfoming the attractive second movement in a USA performance and hoped one day I might hear the entire concerto.

This is now due to be released and I have placed my order:
