Conductor Shea Lolin and composer/producer Christopher Hussey have returned to Prague to record with the Czech Philharmonic Wind Ensemble, carefully curating an album of premiere recordings spotlighting the woodwind orchestra, capturing its kaleidoscopic colors and symphonic potential to deepen and broaden appreciation of the medium’s power.A large chamber ensemble of flutes, oboes, clarinets, bassoons, and saxophones in various sizes, the woodwind orchestra has a highly adaptable and magical tonal palette—it can be, in turn, boldly vibrant and delicately beautiful, thrillingly powerful and hauntingly tender, earnestly solemn and joyously comical.The recorded repertoire reflects a spectrum of musical styles that exist in 21st-century concert music, ranging from the familiar and instantly singable to the more avant-garde, but always possessing an accessible and inviting musical narrative. Chromosphere is a landmark album, comprising exciting new and re-imagined pieces by leading composers in the genre and demonstrating the unique soundworld of the woodwind orchestra.Shea Lolin is a dynamic and versatile freelance musician living in London. His principal studies were in clarinet performance, composition, and conducting at the Colchester Institute, and he has since developed an inimitable portfolio career as a conductor, performer, and teacher.TracksKeiron AndersonAlice in Wonderland* (11:30)Judith BinghamMozart’s Pets*I.
