Description: From the charming whimsy of Fairy Day, a 19-minute cantata from 1912 which sets texts by a poet known for his children’s poems, to the dignified ceremonial of Verdun (an orchestration of the last two movements of his 1917 Organ Sonata No. 2), this is a welcome and varied collection of some of Stanford’s finest occasional pieces. Ulster Orchestra; Howard Shelley.
