Description: | This recording brings together four extraordinary mid-20th-century
composers who helped shape Americaâ??s musical destiny. Aaron
Coplandâ??s The Tender Land is a moving tribute to the American
rancher and farmer. It forms a profound celebration of those unsung
heroes of that countryâ??s landscape, and is perhaps his greatest
expression of the preciousness of life. Walter Piston is represented
by his colorful and beguiling The Incredible Flutist, which depicts a
traveling circus led by a magical musician who is able to heal the
sorrows of those who hear his music. The two premiere recordings
here are the original orchestral version of Paul Crestonâ??s thrilling
Saxophone Concerto, and Ulysses Kayâ??s Pietà â?? a beautiful elegy
inspired by Michelangeloâ??s masterpiece. - .. LAND SUITE / AND WORKS BY CRESTON/KAY/PISTON |
