Description

|
|
|
"Higdon's signature Americana feelings often reflected in her harmonies and melodies, an easygoing instrumental palette of great color, and a sense of the poetic that also transfers itself into energetic rhythmic vitality grace this work." So writes Audiophile Audition of Pulitzer Prize–winning, contemporary composer Jennifer Higdon's The Singing Rooms, a violin concerto with chorus. The accompanying works are PraiseMaker by Alvin Singleton (also American), and Russian composer Alexander Scriabin's most famous work, written to evoke a spiritual striving for a transcendent level of perception. "A piece of extraordinary depth and emotion…. The PraiseMaker texts are from poet Susan Kouguell, and the work intends on being a universal secular celebration of accomplishments and learning. This it indeed does, and I found it enthralling from first to last."—Audiophile Audition
