Elfman/ Hailstork/ Cameron - Piano Concerto No. 1

This recording presents brand new concertos from two vibrant and contrasting American composers. Adolphus Hailstork's First Piano Concerto draws on his African American heritage to create a work brimming with energy and high spirits. The Violin Concerto "Eleven Eleven" by Danny Elfman - renowned for his many film scores including Batman - has it's roots in the composer's rock, film and television background, but also illustrates his love for the music of Shostakovich and Prokofiev.
