Malipiero - Sea Symphony. It's that Italian bloke again - they get everywhere! . On a Naxos CD. You know, I'm getting quite enamoured with this guy. I've just now ordered a 2 CD set of his string quartets on ASV.

Sergio Rendine - Passio et Resurrectio. Another bloody Italian! - born 1954. And another Naxos CD.
Mmm ... this is a strange one. A big work with "soloists, speakers, percussion, chorus and orchestra". Great fun, very unusual and a very good recording. I think this is gonna grow on me.
