Bernstein's toe-tapping West Side Story sets the tone for the heady flavours of James Morrison's trumpet, the clarinet of Julian Bliss and Marian Petrescu's piano in the exhilarating world premiere of an especially commissioned Triple Concerto by Argentinian composer Lalo Schifrin. Winner of four Grammys, and best known for his blistering theme for the long running Mission Impossible TV series, Schifrin's ability to shift musical gears between jazz and classical styles is unique. When Bernstein conducted the premiere of Ives' nostalgic Symphony No.2 he said, "Ives is America's musical Mark Twain, Emerson and Lincoln all rolled into one." This tantalizing orchestral work is a maelstrom of popular American folk tunes and marches.
