Every superhero has an origin story, a beginning that illustrates their character and sets them on the path ahead. Bernstein’s first published work offers glimpses of the giant he would become. Chinary Ung unleashes his creativity, drawing on traditional Cambodian music to push his art form forward. Beethoven takes his first steps to break free from Classical constraints, and Enescu displays feats of strength with an epic, wildly ambitious work of voluptuous romanticism, Romanian flavor, and near-impossible virtuosity.
"An utter must-hear that proves both a crowd pleaser and connoisseur’s delight."
— The New Music Connoisseur
