This disc offers the world premiere recording of the complete orchestral works by Argentinean composer Oscar Strasnoy. A key figure of Radio France s last Présences Festival, Oscar Strasnoy, aged 40, stands out for his sense of pastiche and the ease of writing that scoffs at the boundaries between popular and art music. He has succeeded in cutting a singular path and establishing himself as one of the most original composers of his generation, both serious and humorous.
