Hi Tim, we do enjoy the 20th century British composers here. And so much seems to fit in to what I think Phasecorrect is asking for.

Would second Jtimothya on his melodic choice but would be willing to specify Emil Gilels, almost any version, his playing had a romantic lyrical ring on almost anything he played including the slow movement of a haydn piano concerto in D, sorry to provide a tangential movement from the main theme
