Conducted by Leslie Heward
In his Preface to the eight symphonies of Boyce, which he has transcribed and edited for strings and wind, Constant Lambert points out that ' William Boyce (1710-1779) does not at the present day enjoy the renown as an instrumental composer that is rightly his as a choral composer, but the neglect into which his instrumental works have fallen is unaccountable for they rank among the finest compositions of their time, not only in England but in Europe. The eight symphonies (a. word which Boyce uses to describe what would nowadays be considered-a concerto grosso) are not only of great technical and historical interest but have a vigour and charm that are rarely found together '
