Kaijo Saariaho: HUSH

This extraordinary trumpet concerto was written when the composer was in the terminal stages of a brain tumour, from which she died before hearing the work's premiere. The third movement seeks to mimic the sounds of an NMR machine. The cadenza was improvised by the soloist, and is rather shocking. The soloist stops playing towards the end of the fourth movement, leaving the orchestra to complete the work, a symbolic gesture. The soloist is Verneri Pohjola, accompanied by the BBC Symphony Orchestra conducted by Sakari Oramo in the UK premiere.
