Description:

Tom Sawyer: A Ballet In Three Acts is an album by Yeston, released in 2013. The album is a classical 2-CD. - .. THREE ACTS

PS Classics continues it's collaboration with Tony Award winning composer-lyricist Maury Yeston (Nine: The Musical, Titanic, Death Takes a Holiday) with the premiere recording of Yeston's Tom Sawyer - a Ballet in Three Acts, adapted from Mark Twain's classic novel. Alastair Macaulay of the New York Times dubbed it "the first all-new, entirely American three-act ballet" and hailed the score as "energetic, robust, warm, deliberately naïve (both ornery and innocent) in ways right for Twain. Mr. Yeston's tuneful music, with sonorities and harmonies that recall Copland, Barber and Prokofiev, ranges easily from comic to sinister, from Muff Potter's drunkenness to a rich celebration of the Mississippi River." Now, Martin West conducts the seventy-piece San Francisco Ballet Orchestra in this two-disc world premiere recording. Tom Sawyer - a Ballet in Three Acts is a thrilling theatrical work, and a must-have for any lover of distinctly American music.
