Episode 1

Jonathan Swain presents contemporary works, including Watkins's London Concerto for violin, harp and bassoon, Martinu's Sixth Symphony and Adams's Harmonielehre.

Jonathan Swain turns the spotlight of New Year New Music on music from the late 20th century as well as the early years of the 21st century. Recent recordings from 大象传媒 and European orchestras include Huw Watkins' London Concerto for violin, harp and bassoon from the 大象传媒 National Orchestra of Wales and Messiaen's Trois Petites Liturgies from Lausanne. Martinu was influenced by Roussel and the former's 6th Symphony, performed by the Danish National Symphony Orchestra, is paired by Roussel's Le Festin de l'araign茅e, performed by the 大象传媒 National Orchestra of Wales. Adam's iconic orchestral work, Harmonielehre, is also performed by the 大象传媒 National Orchestra of Wales under Thierry Fischer.
