composed by Leonard Bernstein

Leonard Bernstein's solemn Kaddish, Symphony No. 3 (1963, revised 1977), and his radiant Chichester Psalms (1965) are among the composer's most durable compositions, and essential works to include in the Milken Archive on Naxos.

Piston: Symphony No. 4/Capriccio/Serenata/New England Sketches (1992) more music like this

performed by Therese Elder Wunrow (harp), Gerard Schwarz (conductor)
composed by Walter Piston

Naturally, Gerard Schwarz and the Seattle Symphony had to record a disc of the music of Walter Piston in their survey of the Great American Symphonists. Not that anybody ever seriously considered him one of the really Great American Symphonists except some of his students at Harvard: in the rest of America, Piston always played second fiddle to ...

Diamond: Symphonies 2 & 4 / Concerto for Orchestra (1990) more music like this

performed by Seattle Symphony Orchestra, Gerard Schwarz (conductor)
composed by David Diamond

Dimitri Mitropoulos loved it. Koussevitzky premiered it. The critics compared it to contemporary works by Shostakovich. In its time, the Symphony No. 2 of David Diamond was one of the acknowledged masterpieces of American classical music. Then war ended and America was overrun by European serialists and worse yet, by an infestation of its own ...

composed by David Diamond

Modality. Tonality. Chromaticism. Lyricism. Grace. Charm.
