As both previous volumes in this series have shown, Luxembourg has a wealth of composers writing vibrant new orchestral scores. Featured on this third volume, Luc Grethen’s Upswing is a crescendo of energy, while Ernie Hammes’ Concertino No. 1 fuses jazz modes with classical patterns, and his West End Avenue evokes the atmosphere of an afternoon in New York. Catherine Kontz explores feminist ideas in The Waves, while Gast Waltzing allows his music to ‘speak for itself’. Volume 1 (8.579059) was acclaimed as ‘an outstanding disc’ by Fanfare, and Volume 2 (8.579116) showcases the music of Marco Pütz.
