Johnson: Orchestral Music, Vol. 3
Sheet Music

SKU: NX.TOCC0456

By Liepaja Symphony Orchestra. By David Hackbridge Johnson. Classical. Listening CD. Toccata Classics #TOCC0456. Published by Toccata Classics (NX.TOCC0456).

Conducted by Paul Mann.

The first two Toccata Classics volumes of the orchestral music of the English composer David Hackbridge Johnson presented three mighty symphonies, conceived on a large scale and powerful in their utterance. The Fifteenth Symphony, tone-poems and other works offered here show a change in focus: an engagement with the natural world, reflecting the poetry of changing light and shifting winds, with man's impermanent presence dwarfed by the implacable grandeur of nature. Here Paul Mann, a frequent Toccata Classics artist, conducts the orchestra of the very town- Liepaja, on the coast of Latvia- that inspired the Fifteenth Symphony.
