Grainger/Fortmann/Lieuwen/Nelson: Orchestral works

Among the orchestras run by academic institutions, that of the Moores School of Music at the University of Houston, Texas, is among the most accomplished and is of a very high professional standard. Here they present for new works, all of which are very approachable, enjoyable and varied – from the dynamic Etruria Symphony of Swiss composer Thomas Fortmann) to the lovely new orchestration of Percy Grainger’s pastoral ‘Lincolnshire Posy’.
