At its concert on November 30, Toronto’s Esprit Orchestra will launch its latest recording, Maki Ishii Live. The new recording features the orchestra (led by music director Alex Pauk) and percussionist Ryan Scott – and the concert will include one of the works on the CD, South – Fire – Summer, described as “a colossal multi-percussion and marimba solo with sparse orchestral accompaniment, which mounts to a powerful, climactic finale.”

The program (which takes place at Koerner Hall, Royal Conservatory of Music) will also include Valentin Silvestrov’s Postludium, Ana Sokolovic’s Nine Proverbs, and Rocanã by Unsuk Chin.
