Bernstein Century - American Masters Classical Review


Customer Bernstein Century - American Masters Reviews 




Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars) 5 stars

5 stars Great if little-known composers
This is quite a collection of works from American composers in the twentieth century. While I have heard great things about the Harris Symphony, it seems a bit strange and modern to me. The Thompson symphony is more light-hearted and fun, resembling Copland's work. The Diamond symphony is deep and somewhat mellow except for the third movement, and it gets better with each listen.
