The Lion In the Lute: British Guitar Music
Anders Miolin’s recording has a quite mellow but clear and resonant sound. Miolin’s version is faithfully detailed, and like Garrobé, he adopts the ‘non troppo’ approach to the Rondo. Unusually, the guitar used is a ten-stringed instrument. The programme is substantial, and all British; featuring Walton, Rawsthorne, Berkeley, Tippett and Britten.

Alex Garrobé plays sensitively with a warm tone. His middle movement (Lento) is smooth and expressive, has careful dynamic changes but is not too slow. This version also has the merit of a final movement (Rondo) which is more measured than most, thus correctly observing the given tempo marking (Allegro non troppo).
