"Well crafted, brilliantly scored works ... under the composer’s direction sparkle … Boyer instills his Technicolor scores with a captivating energy and drive ..."
- Classical Lost and Found
Peter Boyer is one of the most frequently performed American orchestral composers of his generation, widely admired not least for his Grammy-nominated Ellis Island: The Dream of America. He has conducted recordings of his music with three of the world’s finest orchestras: the London Symphony Orchestra, the Philharmonia Orchestra, and on this album, the London Philharmonic Orchestra. The centerpiece of this 2014 album, Symphony No. 1, is a highly approachable, lyrical and rhythmically charged work, dedicated to the memory of Leonard Bernstein. The composer says the works included here represent a cross section of his orchestral music: "Three Olympians reflects my interest in mythology and history. Often I have received invitations to compose music for celebratory concerts, and three of the works included here -- Silver Fanfare, Festivities and Celebration Overture -- were created for such occasions.” Recorded at Abbey Road Studios.
