Our Take

If you're looking for a musical rollercoaster ride through the bright lights and bustling streets of New York City, then look no further than the latest offering from Ensemble Intercontemporain and Matthias Pintscher. This album is a smorgasbord of contemporary delights, featuring compositions by the likes of Varese, Carter, Fulmer, Shepherd, Reich, Cage, and Feldman.

The opening track, Varese's "Ionisations," is a cacophony of sound that will transport you straight to the heart of the Big Apple. With its jarring rhythms and explosive percussion, this piece sets the stage for the wild journey that lies ahead.

Next up is Carter's "A Symphony of Three Orchestras," a sprawling epic that showcases the ensemble's technical prowess and sheer musicality. The interplay between the three orchestras is nothing short of mesmerising, drawing you in and refusing to let go.

Fulmer's "Beauties of A Common Nature" offers a more introspective moment, with its shimmering textures and delicate melodies. It's a welcome respite from the bombast of the previous tracks, allowing you to catch your breath before diving back into the chaos.

Shepherd, Reich, Cage, and Feldman round out the album with their own unique contributions, each adding their own flavour to the mix. In the end, this album is a whirlwind tour of modern music that will leave you breathless and begging for more. Strap in and enjoy the ride!
