Robert Groslot - Now Voyager Sail

Now, Voyager, sail... (First Symphony), Op. 130 is Robert Groslot's first symphony. The title refers to a poem by the American author Walt Whitman. And the "Scherzo" movement shares a link with the Beatles song, Getting Better from the album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. Groslot borrows musical motives and paraphrases them in his musical language. A unique selling point of the present recording is that the solo part of the Violin Concerto is performed by German virtuoso Linus Roth.
