The music on this disc spans from the years before World War I to a few days before the outbreak of World War II. Bartók, Webern, Prokofiev and Hindemith were all central figures of their time, illustrating - and to an extent personifying - different approaches to modernism in music.
This varied programme touches in turn on neo-classical and neo-baroque idioms, folk music, atonality and impressionism.
"This is an attractive programme, superbly performed and recorded with an ideal balance between detail and atmosphere in 5.0 surround sound. From solos to the weightiest of tuttis this is a band which punches way above its chamber weight. Musical satisfaction and involvement is created at every turn of the music's pages." (MusicWeb)
