Notes & Reviews:

"...As Paul Griffiths points out in his authoritative notes, Barraque struggled to 'maintain the romantic voice in the fragmentation to which serialism was inescapably leading". The opening Concerto, consisting of 18 soloists divided into 6 groups, is typically complex yet visceral, delicate yet forbidding, colorful yet austere...The performances here are vigorous and committed; the recording is lively and vivid...[an] important release." -Sullivan, ARG
