Notes & Reviews:

"This stuff is simply gorgeous. Ned Rorem's symphonies are shot through with long, lyrical melodies that some observers might relate to his gifts as a songwriter, but strike me as more likely inspired by the "Sunrise" sequence from Ravel's Daphnis et Chloé - music so strikingly lovely that the beauty it describes can only exist in the world of fantasy and make-believe." -Classics Today (on the Three Symphonies)
