About

This new release from DUX features premiere performances of works by contemporary composers, in various styles, all of which are dedicated to the Baltic Neopolis Orchestra under Emanuel Salvador.

The album opens with 13 Variations on a Polish Melody for violin, cello and chamber orchestra by Marcelo Nisinman; the composer based its motifs on the Polish Ave Maria. It is followed by Mikołaj Piotr Górecki's Second Space. Making use of aleatoric textures, Second Space was conceived as an unconstrained dialogue between the string quartet and the orchestra. Paweł Łukaszewski's Neopolis Concerto was composed especially for the Szczecin ensemble, and presents passages of deeply contemplative writing, in reference to composer's fondness for sacred music. The third composition featured on the album is Ewa Fabiańska-Jelińska's Concerto for Viola and String Orchestra. Fabiańska-Jelińska refers to the transition between chaos and spirituality through the means of musical narrative; insight into one's own spiritual life through music's inner harmony.
