Also by Lindberg, Kundraan was originally composed for trombone and chamber orchestra but was re-arranged for this disc.
Yiu-Kwong Chung has here adapted a famous aria from the Peking opera Cursing General Cao Cao into a striking piece in which the solo trombone is supported by the traditional trio of Peking Opera (clapper and drum, descant fiddle and lute) and orchestra.
For the Mongolian Fantasy, a couple of traditional songs and typical Mongolian throat-singing technique have provided the starting point.
Recueillement focuses on the first and last lines of Baudelaire’s poem.
