A concert recorded at the Glasgow City Halls by the Scottish Chamber Orchestra, conducted by Olari Etts, who perform works by Copland, Milhaud, Mark-Anthony Turnage and Tuur.
Petroc Trelawny introduces a concert recorded at the Glasgow City Halls.
The Tirol Tourist Board commissioned the fashionable Estonian composer Erkki-Sven Tuur's Oxymoron, where the majesty of the Tirolean mountain landscape is to be heard. An imaginary Chaplin film was the inspiration for Milhaud's Le boeuf sur le toit, while Copland's Music for the Theatre is, misleadingly, a work commissioned for the concert hall.
Bassist John Patitucci has inspired Mark-Anthony Turnage in the past, and this concertante work for double bass, A Prayer out of Stillness, is the latest fruit of their collaboration.
