John McLeod: Guitar Concerto (live) 18/09/2024

At last!!! I'm delighted that John McLeod's marvellous Guitar Concerto is now available to hear on YouTube. This - a live concert performance at Music Hall Aberdeen in 2010 - is the only recording of the work. In it, the composer conducts the Aberdeen Sinfonietta with yours truly (Ian Watt) as soloist! You even get to hear my first (and only) published 'composition' in the form of the 3rd movement's cadenza, which of course consists entirely of McLeod's wonderful themes and culminates in a dramatic fugue which juxtaposes several of them (so I only have myself to blame for the difficulty of that passage!).

Of course, the performance is live, audio-only, and far from perfect, but the work is so good it seems a crime to keep it locked up on some external hard drive.

Enjoy, and please leave your comments under the video!
