This disc featuring the New London Orchestra under Ronald Corp showcases the work of Grazyna Bacewicz (1909-1969), whose centenary is celebrated this year. It contributes greatly to the knowledge of her music outside her native Poland, where she is still an important and well-loved cultural figure. It contains premiere recordings of both the Sinfonietta and the Symphony for string orchestra. Bacewicz was one of the most significant composers of the mid-twentieth-century, with strong roots in the culture of Paris, where she studied both composition and violin in the early 1930's. Her most striking music is that which draws on her experience of the neoclassicism of inter-war France. Bacewicz emphasizes neoclassicism's vitality and clarity while at the same time giving it a combination of delicacy and muscularity which is all her own.
