Rolf Hind has worked closely with living composers across a broad range of styles: from John Adams and Tan Dun, to Ligeti and Kurtág; Xenakis and Messiaen, to Simon Holt and Judith Weir. He appears regularly at new music festivals throughout Europe: in Brussels, Oslo, Stockholm, Copenhagen, Darmstadt, Vienna, Strasbourg and Paris. Szymanowski’s influence on Twentieth Century Polish composers is significant, and his exotic virtuoso portraits set the scene for a programme that examines colour and symbolism.
