Page 153 - Alison Balsom Quiet City FULL BOOK

Sørensen's understated, often fragmentary musical language can sometimes defy
categorisation - shades of Pärt, of Vasks, perhaps of Górecki? - but it never fails to make an
impact. The Trio con Brio Copenhagen take the lead in the 2015 triple concerto L'isola della
città, a work that is by turns reflective, chilling and abrasive, while Sørensen's Symphony No.
2 draws on the full forces of the Danish National Symphony Orchestra for a dazzling tapestry
of sonic textures.

Frank Peter Zimmermann: The Complete Warner Recordings

Frank Peter Zimmermann (violin)
Zimmermann's prodigious output for EMI and Teldec over the decades would be the envy of
any living violinist - a truly impressive catalogue ranging from Baroque and Classical sonatas
and concertos, via French and Russian Romantic repertoire, to Kurt Weill and Ligeti. Auric's
violin sonata and Françaix's Sonatine, both relatively rarely recorded and both fizzing with
dynamism, are particular delights.
