Our Take

The latest release from the Cleveland Orchestra and conductor Franz Welser-Most, featuring works by composer George Walker, is a wild kaleidoscope of sound that will leave you questioning everything you thought you knew about classical music. From the hauntingly beautiful "Antifonys" to the lush and emotive "Lilacs", each piece on this album is a testament to Walker's innovative and forward-thinking approach to orchestral composition.

Sinfonias Nos. 4 & 5 showcase the Cleveland Orchestra's unrivalled technical precision and emotional depth, under the expert guidance of Welser-Most. The intricate layering of strings, woodwinds, and brass creates a sonic tapestry that is both exhilarating and deeply moving.

It's clear that Walker's music is not for the faint of heart - it demands your full attention and rewards you with moments of pure musical ecstasy. So, grab your headphones, close your eyes, and let the Cleveland Orchestra take you on a journey through the complexities of Walker's musical universe. You won't regret it.
