Axel Borup-Jørgensen: Marin (1963-70)
This is a very cool #symphonic poem with the sea as its theme – wonderful tone colours. A large #orchestral piece with all individual voices, it apparently took the composer forever to write down the score (well, ca. 50 hours per page, 71 pages)
Absence –#VéroniqueGens with Orchestre National des Pays de la Loire & #JohnAxelrod (2012)
Written by Hector Berlioz. Words by Théophile Gautier.
Brief, but haunting and effective from Estonian composer #TõnuKõrvits (b. 1969).
