This recording showcases works by seven of the foremost New Zealand composers of orchestral music.
The programme is marked by a diversity of expression and mood, but united in that each work reflects to some degree the composer's consciousness of the New Zealand landscape. Together, they make up a 'snapshot' of New Zealand composition at the end of the twentieth century.
The booklet is complemented by beautiful reproductions of paintings of the New Zealand landscape by Leo Bensemann, Bill Hammond, Dick Frizzell and Toss Woollaston and Michael Illingworth.
