Dalit Hadass Warshaw’s new orchestral portrait album, “Sirens”, is hot off the press on BMOP/sound! Released on April 25, 2025, this eagerly-anticipated disc features new recordings of Warshaw’s Sirens: A Concerto for Theremin and Orchestra, along with Camille’s Dance and Responses. All works are performed by the Boston Modern Orchestra Project, led by Artistic Director Gil Rose, with Carolina Eyck as the theremin soloist.
“…haunting, subtle, and thoroughly well-crafted music…This is easily among the best major works written for the theremin.”
★★★★
“…a very engaging listen, in an otherworldly yet somehow sensuous way.”
“…both eerily lyrical and harmonically knotty, chromatic and challenging without being forbidding…Recommended to all contemporary music collections.”
“a composer smitten with the possibilities of massed instruments in conversation…orchestral writing that embraces everything from the subtle and glistening to a voluptuousness that likely would tickle Richard Strauss and Maurice Ravel (one of Warshaw’s heroes).”
“…haunting, subtle, and thoroughly well-crafted music…This is easily among the best major works written for the theremin.”
“The highly evocative music is beautifully rendered by the orchestra.”
“… a multi-threat artist [who] has created a distinguished career…Stirring… abundant vitality and craft…”
10/10
“Warshaw’s inimitable lyricism, orchestral prowess and emotional richness is illuminated so well.”
“Brilliantly Haunting…Phenomenal! The greatest theremin concert ever written…”
