5 out of 5 stars Sorely underplayed!.......2005-08-02

I haven't had the chance to listen to the Concerto Misolidio (indeed I had no idea it existed until I searched for this disc after hearing a friend's copy of the A minor Concerto) but the Concerto in A minor is absolutely wonderful. Tozer's playing is lush and full, showing that he can not only handle the technical challenges of the concerto (of which there are many! I'm a pianist and this concerto is far beyond me) but infuse them with musicality as well. The orchestra does a fine job, and the recording as a whole does justice to this underplayed masterpiece by Respighi. Highly recommended!
