Cpo's Andrzej Panufnik Symphonic Works series has been met with great critical acclaim. The fifth volume in this series sees the young Polish conductor Lukasz Borowicz leading the larger forces of the Berlin Concert Orchestra in fine interpretations of the Polish-English composers' popular Symphonies 7 and 8 and Concerto Festivo. Symphony No. 7 'Metasinfonia' for organ, timpani and strings is dedicated to the Black Madonna of Czestochowa, the symbol of independence for Polish people. Symphony No. 8 'Votiva' is one of Panufnik's most-performed works.
"Magnificently played, Panufnik's music could not have finer advocates and the sound is cool, crystal clear and well balanced. Indispensable listening for those interested in late-twentieth century music." (MusicWeb)
