Thanks for posting this piece, which feels very close in my mind to the Lutoslawski concerto, not so much because of the forces employed, and still less because of any extra-musical “meaning” (especially if the popular interpretation of the Lutoslawski is taken at face value), but because it has the same kind of expressive directness, seemingly born of the same fervent conviction that complexity of means should be no barrier to universality.
Listening to it certainly made up for the disappointment of the Great Yorkshire Wiggle, which Daddy had naively imagined might be a fun place to which to bring two 5-year-olds on a damp Sunday afternoon…
