This is a really fun concerto to play. I remember when I did it with orchestra (that was the second performance) and it deserves to be played and heard far more often.
@BratscheBoy People can play more Bowen after everyone is tired of hearing the Walton being performed live. And we are a long way far from that, unfortunately.
@lispectorando As far as I understand orchestras, there are only three viola concertos (only two which are allowed to be played by violists): Walton, Bartok (by the adventurous orchestras) and Mozart K. 364 (this is the concerto that is given to violinists who want to play viola and rarely, if ever, given to a full time violist). Perhaps we should do that with the violin? They can play Mendelssohn, Tchaikovsky and Bach Double. I think it could work!
bravo!!
