    Album Description

    "Riccardo Muti Conducts Mason Bates and Anna Clyne" is a captivating neoclassical album that brings together two contemporary composers and the renowned Chicago Symphony Orchestra under the baton of maestro Riccardo Muti. Released in 2014 by CSO Resound, this digital-only collection features live recordings from the 2012 premieres of Mason Bates' "Alternative Energy" and Anna Clyne's "Night Ferry."

    Mason Bates' "Alternative Energy" is a fascinating exploration of future energy landscapes, with each of its four movements set in a different time and place, from a farm in 1896 to Reykjavik in 2222. Bates' unique blend of electronic and acoustic sounds creates a rich, immersive experience that pushes the boundaries of classical music. Anna Clyne's "Night Ferry," on the other hand, is a hauntingly beautiful piece inspired by a late-night ferry ride, showcasing her distinctive voice and intricate orchestration.

    With a total runtime of just under 49 minutes, this album offers a concise yet powerful journey through the works of two of today's most exciting composers. The stellar performances by the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and the expert conducting of Riccardo Muti make this release a standout in the neoclassical genre. Whether you're a fan of contemporary classical music or simply looking to explore something new, this album is sure to captivate and inspire.
