This recording offers an overview of four of Peteris Vasks’ most iconic works, from the large scale, dramatic Violin Concerto ‘Distant light’, and the magically dreamy meditation Lonely Angel, to his evocation of Latvian landscape and birdsong Plainscapes and the extatic Dona Nobis Pacem. The first piece by Peteris Vasks that the performer of this album (Daniel Rowland) heard, about a decade ago, was his magnificent Violin Concerto ‘Distant light’, already a modern classic, and Rowland was blown away by the deep emotional impact of this extraordinary music, that seemed to him both wonderfully mysterious, connected to ancient times, touched by a sublime spirituality and at the same time viscerally exciting and with moments of stunning virtuosity.
