Howard Hanson: Symphony No. 4 / Suite from Merry Mount / Lament for Beowulf

Gerard Schwarz handles this music as if born to it, although the music of Howard Hanson does tend to play itself once it gets going. The works on these discs are three of Howard Hanson's masterpieces, especially his Symphony 4, his Requiem Symphony. It is stately, moderated, and unabashedly romantic. It may be Hanson's best symphony. "The Lament for Beowulf" is a choral tone-poem based on the famous English epic. The suite from the opera Merry Mount shows Hanson being at once playful and somber. This music is very user-friendly and is about as conservative as you can get. Recommended. --Paul Cook
