About

The legendary conductor Vladimir Ashkenazy, with the Oxford Philharmonic Orchestra and the promising young violinist Irmina Trynkos, presents the premiere recording of three works by Nimrod Borenstein. The past few years have seen a number of Borenstein's compositions presented at prestigious venues in London, Zurich, Paris, and New York. ‘If you will it, it is no dream’ was written especially for a concert given by Ashkenazy at the Royal Festival Hall in 2013, where it met with great acclaim. While Borenstein is a supremely melodic composer, he draws attention in his works to his special use of counterpoint, which he says could be described as ‘multimelodic,’ suggesting the eternal but ever-changing flow of time, in which events constantly overlap with one another. This technique is characteristic of both ‘If you will it, it is no dream’ and ‘The Big Bang and Creation of the Universe.’
