 GMCD 7230 British Fantasies Amereican Dreams
Sir Hamilton Harty (1879-1941) is probably best-known as a conductor: he was in charge of the Hallé Orchestra in Manchester, England, during the 1920s, made many seminal recordings, some of which are still available, and gave first performances (and first British performances) of works by Walton, Lambert, Shostakovich and Mahler.
As a composer Harty was more conservative than any of these but his smiling, tuneful works are beautifully crafted, often making a play on Harty's Irish heritage (he was born in County Down when Ireland was still a single country).
At the head of the score of In Ireland Harty has written 'In a Dublin street at dusk, two wandering street musicians are playing' - to judge from the music they are a flautist and a gaelic harpist.

Tonight's performance used a reorchestration prepared by Sir Hamilton Harty for six selected movements.
This already-popular music was given a new orchestral dress with much-enriched sonorities and felicitous embellishments, adding harmonic colour to the baroque chiaroscuro of Handel's original orchestration.
A diehard afficionado might have found Sir Harty's orchestral enhancements and "twiddly bits" too flamboyant, but it is perhaps more important to note here that it went down well with the audience, some of whom were spotted hand-tapping and head-nodding to the bounce of the Alla hornpipe.

It was written for his wife, soprano, Agnes Nicholls and is a magnificently romantic and poetic piece boldly setting one of the finest poems in the British language.
Harty may have been of the same generation as Bax and Moeran but the music is in neither of their idioms: seeming older-fashioned by comparison - not that this is a criticism.
