This is the third volume in the series of orchestral music by Milanese-born Elisabetta Brusa. Sharing its neo-tonal language with her Nittemero Symphony [Volume 1 / 8.555266], the imposing, vividly immediate and approachable Symphony No. 1 is her first work for large orchestra. The symphonic poem Merlin evokes the great magician of legend through rich orchestral colours and powerful rhythms.
