Nimrod Nimrod

SOMM RECORDINGS is pleased to announce the label debut of composer and conductor Nimrod Borenstein with premiere recordings of three works centering on the piano in various forms: his Piano Concerto, the Piano Quintet Light and Darkness, and Shirim for solo piano.

For the first time and with previously unpublished data, this book traces the complete history of the world’s first jet airliner, and how this aircraft was developed into a succession of military aircraft named Nimrod. One chapter contains much information on a remarkable Nimrod version that was unfortunately abandoned, while another deals with a version of the Nimrod that was previously secret, and contains information never previously published in a book. A particular feature of this title is that each aircraft is illustrated by a detailed cutaway drawing.

This 25th anniversary edition includes the original album, one disc of previously unreleased 'Nimrod' demos, and a live set from Philadelphia recorded one month after 'Nimrod' was released.
