The latest in new music performance, including works by Greg Caffrey, Ed Bennett and Anselm McDonnell, played by the Ulster Orchestra and conducted by David Brophy.

Kate Molleson introduces recent performances by the Ulster Orchestra with conductor David Brophy, recorded last month at the Ulster Hall in Belfast: Anselm McDonnell’s “Coruscate” which means bursts of lights; Ed Bennett’s “Freefalling” which is based on Austrian skydiver Felix Baumgartner's world record-breaking freefall jump in 2012 from an altitude of 39 kilometres; and Craig Ogden is the soloist in the premiere of Greg Caffrey’s “Environments II” a work written for solo guitar, strings and percussion. Also on the programme, Splinters of Ebullient Rebellion, by the Swedish composer, Malin Bång and new releases by Pierre-Yves Martel, Elsa Bergman and Úna Monaghan.
