Summary

Joey Roukens has emerged as one of the finest young composers on the Dutch music scene. His works are examples of different genres of music coexisting in a natural way whether it be new or old styles, high culture or popular culture, western or non-western music. In this hour-long concert we hear a new work from Roukens co-commissioned by Britten Sinfonia and Wigmore Hall alongside music by Lou Harrison and Shostakovich,.

The performances in Norwich will be recorded by BBC Radio 3 for broadcast later in the spring.
