Music for a New Century

'Music For A New Century' is a portrait of composition in postmodern times. Its quartet of pieces were all commissioned or co-commissioned by New Century Chamber Orchestra and stand as emblems of its wholehearted commitment to new work. Its commitment to contemporary music has grown even stronger under the leadership of Daniel Hope. The multifaceted artist and musical activist worked with New Century as Artistic Partner in the 2017-18 season, before being appointed Music Director, a role he took up at the start of the 2018-19 season. 'Music for a New Century' is a stunning new recording for Deutsche Grammophon made as part of the ensemble's 30th-anniversary celebrations. Recorded at Stanford University's Bing Concert Hall, the album features four recent compositions, all commissioned or co-commissioned by New Century.
