II - Angel of Light. Largo: 9:55

Hovhaness' Symphony No.22 was composed in 1970 as a commission from the Birmingham Symphony Orchestra to celebrate the centenary of the city. The subtitle "City of Light" refers to an abstract, idealized city: "I was thinking of a million lights, an imaginary city, " said Hovhaness.

Seattle Symphony Orchestra conducted by Gerard Schwarz.
I - Andante grazioso: 0:00
II - Spirit Lake. Allegro: 10:10
III - Volcano. Adagio - Allegro - Adagio: 17:35
Hovhaness' Symphony No.50 was composed between 1981-2, as a commission from the publishing house Edition Peters. It was premiered in March 2 of 1984, performed by the San Jose Symphony Orchestra conducted by George Cleve. Beyond the composer's fascination with mountains, the piece is directly inspired by the eruption of the volcano Mount Saint Helens. The work was a great success, being the most popular of Hovhaness' late symphonies.
The mountain belongs to the mountain range parallel to the Pacific coast, known as the Cascade Range, being located in the state of Washington 154 km south of Seattle. It was known by the Indians...

III - Andante - Allegro moderato: 13:13
IV - Largo solenne - Allegro maestoso - Andante maestoso espressivo: 17:15
Hovhaness' Symphony No.48 was composed in 1981, as a commission from Leonard Slatkin for the Minnesota Orchestra. The work was premiered on June 21, 1982, during the New World Festival in Miami by the same orchestra and conductor. Hovhaness had a lifelong interest in Astronomy, being inspired by the Andromeda galaxy with its wonders and mysteries.
The first movement is built around a main theme, not following any real standard structure. It begins with a giant hymn presented by violas over rhythm cycles of the percussion and a "spirit murmur" in violins. A gamelan-like percussive passage comes, like rivers of stars going through the galaxy. The oboe takes the theme over the pizzicatos of the strings, adding an oriental flavour to the music. The whole orchestra rises in a powerful climax. The flute takes the hymn in a gentle and lyrical recapitulation. The clarinet joins in a delicate dialogue, followed by the oboe. The gamelan-like percussive section is heard again as a coda, before the music dissolves into silence.
The second movement consist of a short fugue. A vivacious theme of epic nature is the subject presented by the violins, before it goes to the basses. As the music slowly becomes more solemn and dignified, the music rises in a brilliant climax in an orchestral tutti. A massive coda ends the movement forcefully.
The third movement is monothematic in form. It begins gracefully, the bassoon presents an oriental melismatic hymn as the main theme. Pizzicatos of the strings leads to a solo of the flute, taking this hymn in a dance-like variation, with the support of the string's pizzicatos. The music suddenly vanishes without a real ending.
The fourth movement is very free in form. It opens with a massive and brilliant hymn, presented by the whole orchestra and perhaps representing the splendour of the stars. The clarinet follows in a delicate solo based on the hymn. Follows a gamelan percussive passage, creating star-like rivers of sound. A lyrical second hymn-like theme is presented by the violins. The gamelan is repeated by the percussion before the horns present a solemn motif, which becomes the subject of a majestic fugue on the strings. It quickly transforms into a heavenly chorale, which slowly rises towards a grand alleluia-like climax. The symphony ends with a gamelan of stars, going out into the universe.

Symphony No.22 "City of Light" - Alan Hovhaness

Seattle Symphony Orchestra conducted by Alan Hovhaness.
I - Allegro moderato: 0:00
II - Angel of Light. Largo: 9:55
III - Allegretto grazioso: 13:48
IV - Hymn of Praise. Largo maestoso: 16:28
Hovhaness' Symphony No.22 was composed in 1970 as a commission from the Birmingham Symphony Orchestra to celebrate the centenary of the city. The subtitle "City of Light" refers to an abstract, idealized city: "I was thinking of a million lights, an imaginary city, " said Hovhaness.
The first movement is very free in form. Opens with an expansive introduction, the strings hint the sketches of a theme in form of an hymn. The trombones fully expose said theme full of magnificence. It represents the city of the title, full of light and spirituality. The strings open a more dramatic and passionate section as a form of a simple development, using contrapuntal forms. The trumpet solemnly recapitulates the hymn, leading to a brilliant coda.
The second movement is inspired by a childhood memory Hovhaness had in Christmas, being structured around two alternating themes. Tremolos of the strings lead to a solo of the trombone, presenting a widely lyrical theme, full of a nostalgic feeling. In the middle section, the strings present a smooth christmas melody. The trombone recapitulates the main theme over the soft touches of percussion, followed by the christmas theme, after which the movement concludes calmly.
The third movement is monothematic. Opens with a brief oriental introduction, after which the strings present a gently rhytmic theme with an irish folkloric air, which has roots in Hovhaness' past, this time from his high-school years when he had composed an operetta titled "Lotus Blossom". After a full recapitulation, a pedal note leads the music to a fade-out coda.
The fourth movement, as the first one, is very free. Opens with a solemn and potent hymn on the strings, enhanced by the brass. The music rises towards a brilliant and passionate climax. The composer develops the music using several voices, applying his contrapuntal techniques inspired by J. S. Bach. According to the author it is a timeless music, evocative of light and space, of nature and spirituality. After an intense climax, a fugue is started by the bass strings, slowly rising up. A sudden whirlwind of sounds take us to a brilliant and majestic coda.

II - Spirit Lake. Allegro: 10:10
III - Volcano. Adagio - Allegro - Adagio: 17:35
Hovhaness' Symphony No.50 was composed between 1981-2, as a commission from the publishing house Edition Peters. It was premiered in March 2 of 1984, performed by the San Jose Symphony Orchestra conducted by George Cleve. Beyond the composer's fascination with mountains, the piece is directly inspired by the eruption of the volcano Mount Saint Helens. The work was a great success, being the most popular of Hovhaness' late symphonies.
The mountain belongs to the mountain range parallel to the Pacific coast, known as the Cascade Range, being located in the state of Washington 154 km south of Seattle. It was known by the Indians as Louwala-Clough, meaning smoky mountain. At the beginning of the year 1980 it was 2,950 meters high with a slender symmetrical silhouette that earned it the name of the Fujiyama of America. After having been without activity for 123 years, in the morning of May 18, 1980, an earthquake collapsed its north face pressed by the magma that rose through it, being reduced to a huge deposit of debris.
This produced a devastating explosion of gases, molten rock, and water vapor. The collapsed mountain fragment forever buried Spirit Lake with its water turned into steam. The lake at the foot of the mountain had been an idyllic place, much loved by hikers. An immense ash cloud covered the sky and the lateral explosion caused extensive devastation reaching 30 km away. The unexpected explosion caused the death of 57 people, destroying houses, bridges, railways, highways, scorching large areas of forests. It was the deadliest eruption in the history of the United States.
The composer said about the piece: "When Mount St. Helens erupted on the morning of May 18, 1980, the sonic boom struck our south windows. Ashes did not come here at that time but covered land to the east all across the State of Washington into Montana. Ashes continued to travel all around the world, landing lightly on our house a week later, after their journey all around our planet. In my Mount St. Helens Symphony I have tried to suggest a musical tribute to the sublime grandeur and beauty of Mount St. Helens and the surrounding majestic Cascade Mountains."
The first movement is structured as a prelude and a fugue. Opens with a serene and blissfull theme on the strings, representing the grandiosity and beauty of the mountain itself before the incident. The presence of the trombone enhances this rich music, with a solemn motive that passes to the trumpet. The English horn combines these materials in a solo of oriental flavour, followed by the clarinet, oboe and flute. A noble fugue opens in the basses of the strings, rising to the higher instruments as it's voices multiply, almost like a song of praise to the mountain. The whole orchestra rises in a brilliant climax, followed by continuation of the fugue. After a new climax, the fugue is resumed again, leading to a glowing coda.
The second movement refers to the spirit lake close to the mountain which was obliterated by the 1980 eruption. In structure, it is very free. Opens with a percussive passage in the jhala indian stile, representing the constant flow of the water. The English horn presents a lyrical main theme, which represents the beauty of the lake itself. It is taken by the bassoon, flute, clarinet and oboe. The percussive passage is recapitulated. The flutes perform a lyrical duo over the string's pizzicatos. The clarinet joins briefly before the duet continues. The percussive passage is recapitulated as a coda, ending the movement.
The third movement represents the volcano eruption, being structured in ternary form. Opens with calm hymn presented by strings and ornamented by the celesta, it is a variation of the fugue theme heard in the first movement. It represents the calm morning of the day everything happened. The piccolo briefly recapitulates the theme in pianissimo, before being cut-off by a massive percussive outburst. Brasses introduce a menacing and dissonant theme as a representation of the mountain's explosion. This is followed by a violent senza misura passage of controled chaos by the whole orchestra. Brasses and percussion turn this menacing theme in an imposing march. However, this violence slowly fades away, concluding when the strings recapitulate the opening hymn in a brilliant manner, a new sing of praise to the mountain. It becomes the subject of a joyful fugue for strings. The whole orchestra rises in a thrilling recapitulation of the hymn. The whole work ends with a massive coda.

Score video of Schumann's Rhenish symphony. Text by Blair Johnston.
Schumann's "Rhenish" Symphony, the Symphony No. 3 in E flat major, Op. 97, is so called because it was written in the fall of 1850 during the composer's tenure as conductor at Düsseldorf on the famous Rhine river. In a letter to the publisher N. Simrock in 1851 Schumann claimed that the history and spirit of that noble river and its people were running through his mind as he composed the work. The Symphony was less successful at its premiere in February 1851 (under the composer's direction) than had his two previous symphonic premieres had been. Although third in number, the "Rhenish" is actually Schumann's final entry in the genre,...

00:03 I. Passacaglia and Fugue
13:46 II. Chorale and Toccata
New York Philharmonic conducted by Leonard Bernstein
William Schuman (1910-1992) was a notable American composer of the 20th century, also known for serving as president of the Juilliard School and of Lincoln Center.
Schuman's third symphony, written in 1941 and dedicated to the conductor Serge Koussevitzky, is considered one of his finest works; I find it one of the most compelling American symphonic works ever written. Modeled loosely on Baroque forms, it contains two parts: the first comprises a passacaglia and fugue, while the second is composed of a chorale and toccata. What I find most appeal...

In a letter to the publisher N. Simrock in 1851 Schumann claimed that the history and spirit of that noble river and its people were running through his mind as he composed the work. The Symphony was less successful at its premiere in February 1851 (under the composer's direction) than had his two previous symphonic premieres had been. Although third in number, the "Rhenish" is actually Schumann's final entry in the genre, the forthcoming Symphony No. 4 in D minor, Op. 120, having been originally composed in 1841.
The heroic main theme of the opening Lebhaft is laced with hemiolas that transform its basic 3/4 time into larger bars of 3/2. A second theme in G minor is offered by the oboe and clarinet before being taken over by the violins. The astute listener will have noticed a keen similarity between the rhythmic outline of Schumann's main theme and that of the main theme to the opening movement of Johannes Brahms' Symphony No. 3 in F major. This similarity is enhanced even further during the transition to the second theme in the recapitulation, when the figure is played out with precisely the same intervallic content as the later Brahms melody -- just one example of the deep and abiding influence Schumann's music had on his younger associate. Schumann incorporates the jovial Rheinweinlied (Rhine-wine Song) into the Scherzo, which, as in the Second Symphony, appears as the second rather than the more traditional third movement. The solid C major foundation is shaken up briefly by the A minor Trio (although, rather stubbornly, the bass continues to putter around on low C). Perhaps the most fascinating aspect of the "Rhenish" Symphony is the interpolation of an extra movement. Marked Feierlich (Solemn), the movement originally carried the inscription, "in the manner of an accompaniment to a solemn ceremony." The Finale is a robust outburst (marked, like the first movement, Lebhaft) which recalls some of the main theme from the fourth movement before plunging into a final burst of joyful E flat.

William Schuman (1910-1992) was a notable American composer of the 20th century, also known for serving as president of the Juilliard School and of Lincoln Center.
Schuman's third symphony, written in 1941 and dedicated to the conductor Serge Koussevitzky, is considered one of his finest works; I find it one of the most compelling American symphonic works ever written. Modeled loosely on Baroque forms, it contains two parts: the first comprises a passacaglia and fugue, while the second is composed of a chorale and toccata. What I find most appealing about the work is its stirring nature and precisely crafted form; every movement is a showcase of orchestrational development from small to large scales.
