Shipping time: In stock | Free shipping within the US
Kenneth Fuchs is one of America’s leading composers and his latest
collaboration with award-winning conductor JoAnn Falletta and the London
Symphony Orchestra – the first volume of which (8.559224) was nominated
for two GRAMMY® awards – reveals the breadth of his achievement.
Atlantic Riband evokes the struggle and ultimate victory of ocean-crossing
immigrants to America in an orchestral showpiece of power and splendor.
American Rhapsody is a lyrical romance for violin and orchestra, and Divinum
Mysterium a single-movement viola concerto rich in expressive tapestry.
Concerto Grosso shows Fuchs’s sheer energy, and Discover the Wild is an
orchestral overture of lyricism and color. A champion of American music, JoAnn Falletta has presented
nearly five hundred works by American composers including over
one hundred world premières. Her Naxos recordings include the
double Grammy Award winning disc of works by John Corigliano
and Grammy nominated discs of works of Tyberg, Dohnányi,
Fuchs, Schubert, and Respighi.
