Approaching Dutilleux’ is a series of recordings taken from a concert project that took place in London and Cambridge in May 2014. Scheduled on the one-year anniversary of Henri Dutilleuxs death (22 May, 2013), five emerging composers from around the world were commissioned to write pieces inspired and/or informed by Dutilleuxs masterwork Les Citations. This CD brings together all five of these new works, with their many different visions of and approaches to Dutilleux, along with Arlene Sierras Petite Grue, written on the occasion of Dutilleuxs visit to Cardiff University in 2008.
