The Apollo Chamber Players present Blurred Boundaries, featuring commissions from veteran composers Libby Larsen and Marty Regan as well as from the winner of Apollo’s inaugural international commissioning contest, Erberk Eryilmaz. Each of these composers examines culturally specific musical traditions and frames folk material in ways that are engaging, unique and revelatory. These three compositions mark the beginning of Apollo’s initiative 20x2020 to commission 20 new folk music-inspired works by 2020. Accompanying the three modern folk explorations are premiere recordings of companion pieces, highlighting not only the commissioned composers' skills in forging different pathways between cultures, but also Apollo's aim to provide fresh context and a contemporary perspective on more traditional repertoire. Of special note is Florence Beatrice Price's Five Folksongs in Counterpoint, a forgotten work that existed only in manuscript form prior to this release.
