This new Ondine disc continues a series of recordings of the works of Erkki-Sven Tüür (b. 1959), a composer of several symphonies and one of the leading Baltic composers.
Besides symphonies Tüür has also written concertos to commissions by various wellknown orchestras. This disc includes two concertos featuring rising Finnish clarinetist Christoffer Sundqvist and star-violinist Pekka Kuusisto together with Finnish Radio Symphony Orchestra conducted by Hannu Lintu.
"Tüür's material is passionately direct, with intricate, trailing lines and passages of ominously intense stasis puncuated by explosive climaxes. Lintu shapes it with spirit - and most convincingly." BBC Music
"Hannu Lintu's Finnish Radio SO show their class in all three performances, each full of considered phrasing, deep listening and impressive agility (the same can be said of the soloists). Tüür is blossoming into a composer of true significance. Go listen." Gramophone
