===Concertos=== ; Violin Concerto (1959): A work of some forty minutes, dedicated to the violinist [[Ernest Element]], withdrawn by the composer late in his life. Simpson had considered revising the work, and Matthew Taylor has reworked the composition to fulfil Simpson's original intentions. ; Piano Concerto (1967): A one-movement twenty-minute work, falling into several sections and written for the pianist [[John Ogdon]]. The concerto is one of his most big-hearted and instantly accessible scores. ; [[Flute Concerto (Simpson)|Flute Concerto]] (1989): A one movement work of twenty-five minutes duration, commissioned by and dedicated to the flautist [[Susan Milan]]. The work embraces a calmness in the manner of [[Symphony No. 11 (Simpson)|Symphony No. 11]]. ; Cello Concerto (1991): A one-movement variation-form work of twenty-three minutes duration, commissioned by and dedicated to the cellist [[Raphael Wallfisch]]. The work begins vigorously and ends in an atmosphere of contemplative mystery.
