Holloway's richly-layered and steamily impressionistic Third Concerto for Orchestra is an exotic musical picture of South America, which carries the listener from the Great Brazilian Swamp to New Year celebrations in the Bay of Bahia.
"This is the recording of the world premiere... I remember being bowled over by the work then, and welcomed the chance to hear it again on CD: the density of incident and sheer colour and detail in the orchestration need repeated hearings to appreciate fully."
