Kaija Saariaho has been New York Carnegie Hall's Composer-in-Residence since the beginning of the current 2011-12 Season.These recordings feature such acclaimed soprano soloists as Pia Freund, Anu Komsi and Karita Mattila, as well conductors Christoph Eschenbach with the Orchestre de Paris, Hannu Lintu with the Avanti! Chamber Orchestra, Esa-Pekka Salonen with the L.A. Philharmonic, and Jukka-Pekka Saraste with the Finnish Radio Symphony Orchestra.The recordings have been previously released by Ondine to international popular and critical acclaim -
