The symphony's third movement displays two distinct moods: The stately but severe Minuetto section, played here with conviction, and the charming trio section, scored for the six winds only (oboes, bassoons and horns), which offered a wonderful minute or two of sunny optimism. Music man Mike Batt wrote the show's theme song and penned hits like Remember You're A Womble, We Wish You A Wombling Merry Christmas Every Day, Minuetto Allegretto and Wombling White Hats And Tails. Mr Berkowitz's excellence as a performer is seen especially in those passages calling for extreme delicacy: his playing of the minuetto in the E Flat Major Sonata is an example of this. |
