Erkki-Sven Tüür: Magma
Not yet 50, Estonian Erkki-Sven Tüür’s claims to be considered one of the most vibrant contemporary talents can only be enhanced by this stimulating programme. Magma, nominally his Fourth Symphony, is really a percussion concerto that throws Evelyn Glennie (for whom it was written) exuberantly upon a large kitchen department, with ear-stupefying results.
