<p>Maria Grenfell’s music has been described as ‘expansive, effusive and energetic’, ‘magic’, and ‘refreshingly groovy’. Her chamber music is played around the world. Her orchestral music has been commissioned and performed by all the major symphony orchestras in Australia and New Zealand; this album presents world premiere recordings of six of Grenfell’s best-loved orchestral works, exploring subjects as diverse as Maori legend, Tasmania’s natural beauty, the struggles of immigrant workers, and 18th-century explorer Matthew Flinders’ extraordinary cat Trim.</p>
