"If you are like me you will take everything else out of your CD changer and put in these two 'Masterworks' discs - what a fantastic set!"
Martin James
San Francisco
"A striking compilation of distinctive, award-winning chamber and orchestral works by contemporary, living composers. Ranging from eerie and haunting atmospherics to broad and majestic assertions, from chilling strings to lumbering trombone, from the experimental and academic to the playful and animated, this album reveals the most creative, colorful and expressive work of some of today's top writers. Take a step beyond the standard repertoire and venture into the 'Masterworks of the New Era.'"
CD Baby
"With distribution to more than 370 radio stations across North America and Europe, along with access to major music retailers in the United States and Canada, 'Masterworks of the New Era' is among the leading vehicles for getting contemporary classical music before the public."

I would like to say how pleased I have been with my personal and business relationship with ERM Media. When I heard about ERM's new CD series "Masterworks of the New Era" I knew it would be something quite extraordinary and I wanted to be part of it. Throughout this process ERM Media has been very helpful in communicating and promptly answering all questions. The recording on which I have a composition(Vol 2) was produced in an extremely professional manner. ERM is very good about sending their CDs out to radio stations and since Volume 2 was released it has received a tremendous amount of radio play-even by my local classical radio station here in San Francisco who rarely air contemporary music. In
addition to all of the above ERM is fair about sending out mechanical royalties (unlike many other record companies which which I have been
involved) and even has acted as an intermediary between the recording orchestra and myself in arranging future performances of my piece. I
highly recommend ERM Media as an excellent recording company.

Reviews in for Volume 11!
ERMMedia
is delighted with the fantastic reviews for our Masterworks of the New Era
- Volume Eleven. Here are just a few reviews about the series:
BRAVO! I originally bought this CD because I am a
fan of the music of David Arkenstone. Owning many of his newage cd's I was
anxious to hear what he was going to create and he didn't dissappoint. His
composition on the 3rd disc "Surrounded by Beauty" is just that; beautiful. My
one complaint is that I am wanting more after it only being 3min long. Now the
best reason for owning this collection is the 2nd disc. I was not familiar with
any of the composers but this disc is stunning! It starts with an intense piece
by Robert Hagenbuch titled "Homage to Barber". At 12 minutes in length it starts
very low and haunting and gradually crescendos throughout. With the additions of
different meters and themes , there is such tension created that by the end the
listener is glad to hear the first notes of Andrew Anderson's beautiful "Small
Town" just so they can breath again. Being a percussionist the composition
created by Robert Ceely titled "Three Satires" is wonderful. The 2nd movement of
the piece "Ritmit" has such interplay between the orchestra and the percussion
that I hope Evelyn Glennie hears this piece and commissions Mr. Ceely to compose
a new work for her.
While I look forward to a new disc by D. Arkenstone, I
can also now look forward to finding and hearing new music by Hagenbuch,
Anderson, and Ceely. I loved it! BRAVO!!! Amazon.com
OUTSTANDING! The ERM "Masterworks" series reaches
its apex with this marvellous box-set compilation of contemporary composer's
works. On Disc 1 (Track 2) Jonathan Little's elegant 15-minute tone poem,
"Terpsichore - the Whirler, or Muse of Dance", is especially outstanding: a
dynamic and sparkling major new work for virtuoso orchestra. All eleven volumes
of the ERM "Masterworks" series are worthy of purchase but none more so than
this exquisite compilation box-set. Truly outstanding. NJ Hart (London)
EXCEPTIONAL!, November 7, 2007 By Dominick "Nick" (Los Angeles) The
Masterworks of the New Era - Volume Eleven is a superb CD set which collects
works by living composers, and with this 11th compilation the series continues
to get better and better. The recording begins with a wonderful fanfare and
navigates its way through exciting new pieces recorded by world-class
orchestras. Particularly, the works by Middleton (disc 1) and Anderson (disc 2)
are quite moving, and McConville's "Tableaux of Katrina" (disc 1) is a
terrifying yet beautiful homage to the tragedy that struck the gulf coast in
2005. For shoppers who are looking for new music from some of the best living
composers out there right now, be sure to give this a listen!
