Description
This Portrait captures nearly fifteen years of creativity (2009-2023) from a leading Spanish composer-conductor, taking in both chamber and ensemble works. The work from these intervening years pivots around an important stylistic shift, in 2016: Coll gave voice to flamenco traditions for the first time, drawing its gestures and mood into his musical language. His brittle, explosive style - already indebted to the surreal atmosphere and wild humour of Spanish modernism - was further enriched by Spanish folk influences. What this recording captures is the heady mix of influences - philosophical, literary, geographical, and painterly - that react together and infuse Coll's expressive language with its dynamic, unpredictable quality.

"Coll is one of Europe's most distinctive composers, and the Hague-based ensemble's virtuosity showcases the startling fertility of his imagination" 4 STARS, The Guardian
'Taleas oblicuas for oboe and ensemble, first performed in 2023, it's the sheer brilliance of the instrumental writing that is so compelling, as the solo instrument skates across ever-changing percussion-dominated surfaces, interrupted by moments of profound lyrical introspection.' The Guardian
