Gerard SchwarzAbout
The introspective Night Journey is based on Schuman’s score for Martha Graham’s ballet about Jocasta’s tragic destiny as both mother and wife of Oedipus, while his arrangement of Ives’s popular Variations on ‘America’, again rich in percussion, combines reverence and exuberance.
“I hope the disc listed here will draw new admirers to this distinguished composer’s body of work.” - Fanfare on 8559254
“Schwarz and the orchestra play with stirring vitality.” - San Francisco Chronicle on 8559317
