Free Music Notes for Gounod: The 2 Symphonies
Free Music Review: schizophrenic
Hit: 3 Stars
Just as Gounod himself careened between becoming a member of the clergy and a composer, his symphonies also veer - between late 18th century classical music and mid 19th century French romanticism, often in the same movement. While I find the idea of contrasting styles of interest, I can't help but feel that in these works Gounod presents us with the mediocre of each period. As the liner notes say, these are "modest" symphonies. How very kind.
