Wallace. Creation Symphony. Bbc Scottish Symphony/
Label: Hyperion Catalog: CDH 55465 Format: CD BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra, Martyn BrabbinsComposed by: Wallace, W.: Creation Symphony, Pelléas and Mélisande Suite, Prelude to The Eumenides Prior to the making of this recording in 1997, no one had performed Wallace’s Creation Symphony for nearly a hundred years. In the history of the symphony in Britain, the work, which guides listeners through the first few verses of the Book of Genesis, is unprecedented in its scope and daring. Wallace’s Pelléas and Mélisande Suite is a work of heart-on-sleeve passion, and yet both this suite and the equally rewarding Prelude to The Eumenides remain virtually unknown. Price: $13.98 |
