"Big band, electric guitar and symphony orchestra. It's remarkable how successfully they're integrated by Estonian composer Erkki-Sven Tüür...The performance is admirably tight and well-coordinated - you can tell Olari Elts had conducted the work eight times before making the recording." BBC Music

Comparisons with Nørgård and Aho are probably beside the point, except to say that if they are your idea od first-rate contemporary symphonist...you're likely to find Tüür worthy of their company. And of course if you already know Tüür, this new disc, superbly performed, recorded and annotated as it is, will be self-recommending in any case." (Gramophone)
