The Ulster Orchestra conducted by Chales Peebles with violinist Ioana Petcu-Coland soprano Rebecca Murphy mark the 150th anniversary of Samuel Coleridge-Taylor (1875–1912) with a selection of his orchestral works, reflecting both his Afro-British parentage and a musical milieu that included Holst and Vaughan Williams. Five of the seven works presented here are first recordings including his first work for voice an orchestra, Zara’s Earrings, Op. 7. Other premiere recordings include Ethiopia Saluting the Colours, Op. 51 for orchestra and organ, Solemn Prelude, Op. 40 (revived in 2021), Ent’acte 1 from the Incidental Music to Nero, Op. 62 and the Romance in B (after the beloved Larghetto affettuoso movement of the Clarinet Quartet, Op. 10). The albums more familiar works are Coleridge-Taylor’s Idyll, Op. 44 and the Ballade for Violin and Orchestra, Op. 4.
