Our Take

Diving into the world of George Walker's Five Sinfonias, performed by the National Symphony Orchestra at the Kennedy Center, is like entering a musical labyrinth of complexity and beauty. Maestro Gianandrea Noseda leads this talented ensemble through a mesmerising journey that showcases the genius of Walker's compositions.

From the opening notes of Sinfonia No. 1, listeners are transported to a realm where intricate melodies and lush harmonies collide in a symphonic explosion. Aaron Goldman's masterful flute solos in Sinfonia No. 3 are a highlight, weaving effortlessly through the orchestra's tapestry of sound.

Shana Oshiro's delicate touch on the harp adds a magical touch to Sinfonia No. 4, while DeMarcus Bolds' powerful percussion drives the rhythm forward with relentless energy. Daniel J. Smith's soaring violin solos in Sinfonia No. 5 bring the album to a breathtaking conclusion, leaving listeners with a sense of awe and wonder.

Overall, this album is a testament to the talent and artistry of the National Symphony Orchestra and its collaborators. George Walker's Five Sinfonias are a tour de force of classical music, and this performance is a must-listen for any fan of the genre. Get ready to be swept away on a musical odyssey unlike any other.
