Michael Finnissy is widely acknowledged as one of the foremost composers of our day, and generally linked with the “new complexity” movement. The composer describes Mississippi Hornpipes as a “cut-up” of American folk-fiddle tunes. In Seterjentens Fridag, fragments of traditional melodies and generic figuration are welded together. Irish violinist Darragh Morgan has recorded over 50 CDs for labels including NMC, Naxos, Nimbus, and Signum. Irish pianist Mary Dullea, has commissioned and premiered works from composers as varied as Michael Finnissy, Johannes Maria Staud, Donnacha Dennehy and Gerald Barry.
