Composer Christopher Gunning writes: “Although I have often thought of writing a Violin Concerto, it was 2011 when I first felt the time was right. Then in 2012 I climbed the beautiful Sugarloaf Mountain near Abergavenny full of ideas for the piece; it would be predominantly lyrical and melodic but also quite florid, with the violin ducking and weaving, rather like the insects and birds of the Welsh hills and valleys. However while I wanted to express my feelings of joy at being in this incredible place there would also be room for sadness and melancholy, emotions never far from the surface of my music. So it was that the concerto now grew and grew and before long it became apparent that this was to be a major opus. The press has praised this work, stating “This is serious music for serious music lovers, and it is thoroughly recommended.” (Classical Source) and of Richard Harwood’s playing, “His playing is hard to beat for sheer beauty of tone.” (The Strad)
