Douglas Lilburn: The Three Symphonies - CD

About

Lilburn's compositional legacy is a corpus of works which has been instrumental in establishing a genuinely vernacular voice in New Zealand classical music. His three symphonies represent the heart of his creativity. The first and second are the composer's response to the elevating power of landscape, whilst the third is an admission that the natural world is beautiful, restorative and necessary, yet also vunerable and transient. These works are available for the first time at budget price on Naxos.
