Aaron Copland's Organ Symphony announced the arrival of a new master. Here the San Francisco Symphony and Michael Tilson Thomas are joined by organist Paul Jacobs. To conclude, A CONCORD SYMPHONY does appropriate many elements from the works of Charles Ives. The Ivesian elements are all re-configured in accordance with Mr. Brant's compositional style. A CONCORD SYMPHONY contains many parts that are not at all reminiscent of Ives, for example, the circus cartoon episodes. To view the big picture, the CONCORD SYMPHONY is somewhat reminiscent in style to the COLORED FIELD ENGLISH HORN CONCERTO by Aaron Kernis, or to the VIOLIN CONCERTO by Jennifer Higdon.
