Tommi Hyytinen - Tired Light (21 St Century Finnish Music For Horn) (2016)

Tired Light -levyn moniulotteiset teokset on sävelletty vuosien 2007 ja 2014 välisenä aikana. Minulle on aina ollut tärkeää työskennellä yhteistyössä säveltäjien kanssa, tilata ja kantaesittää uusia teoksia. Kaikki levyllä kuultavat teokset ovat kantaesittämiäni. Tired Light on luonteva jatkumo ensimmäiselle soololevylleni Reflections of Light, joka sisältää suomalaisia soolo- ja duoteoksia käyrätorvelle vuodesta 1976 vuoteen 2006.
