For their third Rattle release following their two Best Classical Album nominated releases, Bright Tide Moving Between (2008) and Flourishes (2011), NZTrio's exceptional new recording features recent commissions by some of the finest of the current generation of New Zealand composers. Taking its title from Karlo Margetić's Sounz Contemporary award-winner, Lightbox features works by Claire Cowan, Rachel Clement, Alex Taylor, Samuel Holloway, Gao Ping, and Chris Gendall. NZTrio is one of our leading contemporary music ensembles. Simply put, they just keep getting better, and Lightbox is an absolute stunner.
