Christopher Lyndon-Gee is an adventurous conductor and musical storyteller known for dusting off underrated 20th-century gems and giving them fresh life. Born in London and trained at the Royal College of Music, he’s become something of a musical detective – whether he’s digging into Igor Markevitch’s fiery orchestral works, reviving Vytautas Bacevičius’ haunting piano concertos, or spotlighting Valentin Silvestrov’s lush modernism. His recordings (many with the National Symphony Orchestra of the Polish Radio) reveal a knack for balancing precision with emotional punch, especially in complex works like Varese’s clangorous *Amériques* or the dreamlike textures of Narbutaitė’s *No Yesterday, No Tomorrow*.
A globetrotter with baton in hand, Lyndon-Gee’s career has hopscotched from Australia to the Philippines to Europe, often championing Baltic and Eastern European composers. When he’s not in the studio or concert hall, you might find him diving into academic work – his passion for music history bleeds into projects that connect the dots between forgotten scores and their cultural contexts. For fans of orchestral deep cuts, he’s basically your guy with a flashlight in the classical music attic.
