Pulitzer Prize-winning composer Kevin Puts (born 1972) is known for his distinctive and richly colored musical voice. Making their label début, Marin Alsop and the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra perform Kevin Puts' Symphony No.4 ("From Mission San Juan"), inspired by Native American melodies. Opening this program of world première recordings, Craig Hella Johnson leads Conspirare in two choral settings of texts by women poets: "To Touch the Sky" and "If I Were a Swan".

Prix Pulitzer de la musique, le compositeur Kevin Puts (né en 1972) se distingue par son style original aux multiples influences. Pour leur premier enregistrement chez harmonia mundi, Marin Alsop et l'Orchestre symphonique de Baltimore interprètent sa Symphonie n° 4 ("From Mission San Juan"), inspirée de mélodies amérindiennes. En ouverture de ce programme inédit au disque, Craig Hella Johnson et le chœur Conspirare chantent deux œuvres chorales sur des textes de poétesses : "To touch the sky" et "If I were a Swan".

Der Komponist und Pulitzerpreisträger Kevin Puts (geb. 1972) ist bekannt für seine markante und außerordentlich farbige musikalische Diktion.

Eröffnet wird dieses Programm von Ersteinspielungen mit zwei Chorwerken auf Texte verschiedener Dichterinnen, "To Touch the Sky" und "If I Were a Swan", gesungen von Conspirare unter Craig Hella Johnson.
