"...The comparatively early but superbly assured Concerto for Strings (1950) will appeal directly to any fan of [Vaughan Williams] or Howells... Braga Santos was, however, a steady developer in his own terms, as the other works in this programme eloquently demonstrate. The Sinfonietta for 12 solo strings [is] given an intense and exciting performance here... The two later concertante works... are very impressive... Alvaro Cassuto (the Sinfonietta's dedicatee) turns in what seem more vital and idiomatic performances. The playing and recording are of a high standard."
