The Brown University Orchestra from Providence, Rhode Island presents this world premiere recording of orchestral music by celebrated author Anthony Burgess, best known for A Clockwork Orange. Initially thwarted in his desire to become a professional composer, Burgess returned to music in the mid 1970s, writing prolifically in many genres. His music is mostly tonal but sometimes dissonant, considered a hybrid of Holst and Hindemith. This album is the culmination of 18 years of Burgess research by conductor Paul Phillips.
"I wish people would think of me as a musician who writes novels, instead of a novelist who writes music on the side."
- Anthony Burgess
