  • Description

    The vitality of these three works by the Irish composer Jerome de Bromhead (b. 1945) point to the sheer pleasure that their creator takes in writing music. The swirling ebullience of the tone-poem A Lay for a Light Year (2014) suggests the scale and energy of the cosmos. The edgy, elegiac lyricism of the Violin Concerto (2008) inhabits textures that are brittle and clear likeStravinsky’s. The more chromatic Second Symphony (1994) suggests a vast sense of space behind a glittering foreground of kaleidoscopic orchestral colours.
