Product Description

Immerse yourself in the rich, orchestral works of Howard Hanson with this captivating album, released on November 1, 2011, under the Naxos label. The album showcases Hanson's mastery of classical composition, featuring his Symphony No. 3, Op. 33, and the Merry Mount Suite, Op. 31. The symphony, divided into four distinct movements, takes you on a journey from somber introspection to lively scherzo and a grand, weighty finale. The Merry Mount Suite, inspired by Hanson's opera of the same name, offers a lighter, more playful contrast with its overture, children's dance, love duet, and lively maypole dances. With a total runtime of 51 minutes, this album is a perfect introduction to Hanson's orchestral works, highlighting his unique blend of romanticism and modernism. Whether you're a seasoned classical music enthusiast or a newcomer to the genre, this album is sure to delight and inspire.
