Pulitzer Prize-winning composer Kevin Puts (b. 1972) is known for his distinctive and richly coloured musical voice. Making their label début, Marin Alsop and the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra perform Kevin Puts’ Symphony No.4 (From Mission San Juan), inspired by Native American melodies. Opening this programme of world première recordings, Craig Hella Johnson leads Conspirare in two choral settings of texts by women poets: 'To Touch the Sky' and 'If I Were a Swan'.

Winner of the 2012 Pulitzer Prize for 'Silent Night', an opera commissioned by Minnesota Opera and co-written with librettist Mark Campbell, Kevin Puts has been hailed as one of the most important composers of his generation. His work has been commissioned and performed by leading orchestras in the United States and abroad, including the New York Philharmonic, Tonhalle-Orchester (Zurich), the Saint Louis Symphony, Houston Symphony, and the Minnesota Orchestra, and by soloists and chamber ensembles such as Evelyn Glennie, Yo-Yo Ma, Jeffrey Kahane, the Eroica Trio and the Miro Quartet.

A native of St. Louis, Missouri, he received his training as a composer and pianist at the Eastman School of Music and Yale University. Since 2006, he has been a member of the composition department at the Peabody Institute in Baltimore, Maryland.

Composer: Kevin Puts
Conductor: Craig Hella Johnson, Marin Alsop
Orchestra/Ensemble: Conspirare, Baltimore Symphony Orchestra

Reviews: “Alsop and the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra make persuasive champions for Puts's Symphony No. 4…The real delight of the disc, though, is the choral cycle To Touch the Sky…Conspirare's straight upper-voice sound sets the tone for delivery that balances simplicity with quiet virtuosity.”

“The symphony is colourful and in it Kevin Puts displays a confident ability to write resourcefully for the orchestra. It’s attractive music without being particularly deep. The performance is spirited and committed…This is attractive, accessible music in first rate performances. Kevin Puts has been well served by this disc.”
