  • Douglas Lilburn: Orchestral Works
CD

Released in 2004 by Naxos, this recording is devoted to Lilburn’s early orchestral works interpreted by the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra conducted by James Judd. Favourites include Overture: Aotearoa, Drysdale Overture, and A Song of Islands. For the very first time Forest (1936) is available on commercial recording – 70 years after the composer penned this work. This album was awarded Editor’s Choice in the December 2006 issue of Gramophone magazine; meanwhile Stephen Johnson of BBC Music comments on Lilburn’s, “unpretentious but original voice, natural lyricism, a language that savours of fresh air, exhilarating heights and awe-inspiring lonely spaces” and remarks that “the NZSO and James Judd bring it off with ripe understanding and audible affection.”
