Now released on Nonesuch Records, Metropolis Ensemble is delighted to present Timo Andres' new album, Home Stretch, pairing the title work with two commissioned works* by Andres: a recomposition of Mozart's "Coronation" and "Paraphrase on Themes by Brian Eno". The album was recorded at Tanglewood's Seiji Ozawa Hall with producer David Frost, Metropolis Ensemble artists, and conductor Andrew Cyr.
