The largely reflective works on this CD illustrate the changing attitudes in the works of composers around the period of the early 1900’s. A politically very sensitive and volatile time, music began to represent a more thoughtful and inward style of composition. This programme, compiled by Antoinette van Zabner, is both thought provoking and stimulating.
