Coult's playful and seductive music has been championed by many of the UK's major orchestras and ensembles, and he was made Composer-in-Association with the\u003cstrong\u003e BBC Philharmonic Orchestra\u003c\/strong\u003e in 2021. Coult has been commissioned by \u003cstrong\u003eBBC Proms\u003c\/strong\u003e (including \u003ci\u003eSt John's Dance\u003c\/i\u003e for the First Night of the 2017 Proms), \u003cstrong\u003eAldeburgh Festival\u003c\/strong\u003e (including pieces for Mahler Chamber Orchestra and for Marian Consort), and\u003cstrong\u003e Lucerne Festival\u003c\/strong\u003e. His first opera, \u003ci\u003eViolet\u003c\/i\u003e, with text by \u003cstrong\u003eAlice Birch\u003c\/strong\u003e, was premiered in 2022 at the Aldeburgh Festival and on tour, and was described by \u003ci\u003eThe Telegraph\u003c\/i\u003e as 'the best new British opera in years'. It has already been staged in second and third productions in Paris and Ulm, Germany, in 2022 and 2023. It has won or been nominated for: an International Opera Award, a South Bank Sky Arts Award, a Critics Circle Award, an IVORS Composer Award and a UK Theatre Award.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis debut album features Coult's violin concerto \u003ci\u003ePleasure Garden \u003c\/i\u003econducted by \u003cstrong\u003eElena Schwarz \u003c\/strong\u003ewith soloist \u003cstrong\u003eDaniel Pioro\u003c\/strong\u003e and is the product of a fruitful relationship Coult enjoys with the violinist. In \u003ci\u003eAfter Lassus\u003c\/i\u003e, Coult takes a number of the duets from Orlando Lassus's \u003ci\u003eNovae aliquot \u003c\/i\u003eand reworks them for Orchestra and soprano solo, performed here by \u003cstrong\u003eAnna Dennis\u003c\/strong\u003e and conductor \u003cstrong\u003eAndrew Gourlay\u003c\/strong\u003e. Dennis and Gourlay return in \u003ci\u003eBeautiful Caged Thing\u003c\/i\u003e - a work that demonstrates the expressive idiom for which Coult is renowned.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe title track, \u003ci\u003eThree Pieces That Disappear,\u003c\/i\u003e for orchestra and fixed audio, is one of several works written for the BBC Philharmonic. Coult says: 'The three movements of this piece are linked by a vague, loosely connected set of ideas about music being remembered, forgotten, misremembered, imagined or deteriorating'. As well as music disappearing, those ideas include the birth of Coult's child (resulting in a turn towards sounds that signify childhood), his own health problems (making words and sounds indistinct), and a dictaphone which misremembers sounds. The work is conducted by \u003cstrong\u003eMartyn Brabbins.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e'It brings to mind the way Mahler used Austrian country dances in his music, creating rootedness and a benign melancholy. That's a lot of nostalgia for one piece. Yet the result is characteristically moving and never overwritten.
