Following the iconic Canto Ostinato, Simeon ten Holt composed Horizon, an enchanting work that weaves hypnotic repetitions with moving melodies. The piece builds towards a rousing climax, before concluding in a quiet and subdued manner. The celestas add a silvery tone to the orchestral sound of the four grand pianos, and expand the pianists’ artistic scope.
