BBC Music Magazine on Gunning Symphonies No.’s 2, 10 and 12 (SIGNUM)

I’m so pleased to see this perceptive and insightful review of Christopher Gunning’s 2nd, 10th and 12th Symphonies with the BBC National Orchestra of Wales on Signum Records in the current issue of BBC Music Magazine.

Critic Geoff Brown writes:

“The idle assumption that people who have found success with TV and film scores cannot stretch themselves beyond writing short cues is knocked on the head with Christopher Gunning…The three symphonies here definitely reveal a substantial concert composer… writing very individual music…there’s no doubt that Kenneth Woods and the BBC National Orchestra of Wales really enjoy themselves performing such personable and communicative music.”
