Named by the Baltimore Sun as an 'Artist to Watch', New Jerseyborn Jonathan Leshnoff is swiftly gaining international recognition. This disc shows three facets of his musical personality: the Violin Concerto, praised as 'remarkably assured, cohesively constructed and radiantly lyrical'; Distant Reflections, a lyrically meditative chamber work that reaches an intense climax before fading back into silence; and the String Quartet No. 1 "Pearl German", whose four movements trace the cycle of seasons through an everchanging musical landscape.
