(Leader, ROLAND SIRRELL )
Conducted by JOHAN HOCK
Apart from the pleasure of doing it, the composer's main aim in composing this symphonic work has been to increase the sparse and ever-performed repertory of string music in the larger forms. There are noble examples available of Bach, Hande], Mozart, Elgar, Dvorak, Tchaikovsky, and a few others, but the modern demand far exceeds the supply. Mr. Reed is a string-player and conductor of vast experience, and if listeners wish to hear what unexplored possibilities of sonority and variety lie in a well-written work for strings, they will do well to tune in to this performance, for there are few composers who can display them better than the composer of this work.
