Btw, Jeremy Dibble writes about this work and Bennett's communications about it etc. in his thesis, downloadable online from U. Durham, "Concert, Form and Style in Sterndale Bennett's Piano Concertos" (page 33 or so).

For those interested, you can download that thesis here. It's fairly short, about 35 pages. It was also published as an article in Nineteenth-Century Music Review, Volume 13 , Issue 2 , December 2016 , pp. 195 - 219.

I relished the read,Ilja.

But I would gently remind colleagues here that the Sixth Piano Concerto has been available for nearly three months,  favourably reviewed in Musicweb, but so far its quality and that of the performance have not generated much attention amongst the Forum. Is there some polite reticence to be read into this?
