Notes & Reviews:

The world premiere recording of "On the Last Frontier", based on the work by Edgar Allen Poe, is a very rich and accessible work of lush and beautiful soundscapes, where mysticism and nature are entwined.--H&B"...This is one of those miraculous marriages between a perfect text and inspired music that truly justifies the notion of music with words...grab this and be overwhelmed...The Helsinki Philharmonic sounds like a world-class ensemble...Sonics are breathtaking..." --Gimbel, ARG
