Product Description

Dive into the avant-garde symphonic world of George Antheil with this captivating 2000 release from Naxos. The album, "Antheil: Symphonies Nos. 4 and 6 / McKonkey's Ferry," offers a compelling journey through two of Antheil's most intriguing symphonies, along with the evocative overture, "McKonkey's Ferry."

The fourth symphony, subtitled "1942," is a four-movement exploration of rhythm and melody, with each section offering a unique blend of intensity and grace. The sixth symphony, "After Delacroix," is inspired by the paintings of Eugène Delacroix, translating the artist's vivid imagery into a three-movement orchestral experience.

Antheil, known for his innovative and often controversial approach to composition, delivers a powerful and thought-provoking collection that challenges and delights in equal measure. The album's duration of 67 minutes provides ample time to immerse yourself in the intricate details and sweeping grandeur of Antheil's symphonic vision. Whether you're a seasoned fan of avant-garde music or a curious newcomer, this album is sure to leave a lasting impression.
