William Bolcom - Symphony No. 4

1. Soundscape



2. The Rose



Joan Morris, Soprano
St. Lous Symphony 
Leonard Slatkin, conductor 

Text:  "The Rose" by Theodore Roethke

One of the greatest symphonies composed in the 20th century.   The incredible beauty of the writing, the incredible clarity of the presentation of the text by Joan Morris is one of the finest examples of singing of the English language I've ever heard.
