Madrid-born Tomás Marco is a multi award-winning and prolific composer whose compact Symphony No 2 is a single ‘Espacio cerrado’ or ‘Closed Space’, expressed using a massive orchestra. As the subtitle ‘Gaia’s Dance’ suggests, the colourful and rhythmic Symphony No 8 borrows elements of dances from different parts of the world. Marco’s Symphony No 9 draws inspiration from the primeval sea spirit ‘Thalassa’, and combines studies in sonority with medieval music sources to create a work which unfolds in a single, extended breath.

"...Inventive, provocative Symphonies."

Byzantion  - MusicWeb-International.com - 13 September 2012


"...This is part of Naxos’s Spanish Classics serires, and is worth investingating if you like your orchestral music to be thick, angry, colorful, and on the teasing verge of atonality."

Raymond Tuttle - Fanfare - September/October 2012
 


"...The orchestral performances appear - so far as one can judge in the absence of a score - to be excellent and resourceful, rising successfully to all the many challenges presented by the composer. The marvellous and always-responsive Serebrier brings understanding and a sense of brilliance to the scoring... The recording is excellent, clear and precise, and one can hear everything the composer intends even if the harp is perhaps a fraction too close to be realistic." 

Paul Corfield Godfrey - MusicWeb-International.com - August 2012


"...The performances by the Malaga Philharmonic, under the baton of veteran conductor José Serebrier, are convincing in every way. Naxos provides excellent sound, and the notes by the composer are invaluable. If you like contemporary orchestral music of progressive but not avant-garde character, you may well find this Tomás Marco disc to your liking."
