4.0 out of 5 stars Gentle, genteel, modal, 28 Nov 2007
Alan Hovhaness's music defies description, until you listen carefully. Thoroughly twentieth century, but hardly modern, the idiom is reminiscent of the folk song composers of the earler part of the century. The music is almost defaintly modal, but there are non-Euroepan influences mixed into the cocktail. The 22nd Symphony and Cello Concerto coupled on this disc offer a good introduction to the composer's highly individual yet sometimes less than memorable voice. The performaces are good, without being brilliant. But it's still superb value for money.
