Temporarily out of stock. In "Aotearoa" (1938) and "A Song of the Islands" (1946), we move from convincing apprentice work to journeyman accomplishments while remaining aware that the ghostly presence of the Finn glides through the landscape. A Song of the Islands" is the outstanding item on the disc, a beautiful and moving score. In the 1960s, Lilburn came under the influence of Aaron Copland. SOme of the later pieces reflect this.
