Taylor's Concerto displays confident youth as the composer ambitiously recalls the Romanticism of the past. The work is a large-scale undertaking for the soloist and the ensemble. Taylor has truly constructed a solo part of transcendental technique and virtuosity. The Concerto is tangible and tuneful, visually captivating and memorable from the first encounter.
