London Contemporary Orchestra - Ancient & Modern

Work:: London Contemporary Orchestra (S0537321196)

Production:: Ancient & Modern (T02843142)

Modern music on ancient themes, exploring the Roundhouse Main Space sonically and spatially. LCO explores 20th-century repertoire for strings, interspersed with a selection of Thomas Tallis' choral masterpieces. As Vaughan Williams’ Fantasia takes Tallis as his inspiration, so John Woolrich looks to Monteverdi in Ulysses Awakes. The programme is completed by two contrasting minimalist incarnations: John Adams'Shaker Loops and Arvo Pärt's elegy to Britten, whose funeral bell tolls throughout the work.
