Free Music Notes for Hovhaness: Symphonies Nos. 4, 20 & 53; The Prayer of St. Gregory
Free Music Review: Worst version of "Prayer" to date.
Hit: 3 Stars
When I saw that "Prayer of St. Gregory" was on this CD, and that John Wallace was performing it, I couldn't wait to put it in the CD player. Unfortunately, I should have looked at the running time of "Prayer" first. At only 3.5 minutes the piece feels very rushed. Hovhaness himself conducted this piece on a CD that is nearly a minute longer. My favorite version of this song is Tommy Stevens recorded on the Crystal label. Aside from the atrocious tempo of "Prayer", the rest of the CD is excellent. Return and Rebuild the Desolate Places is the highlight here, and I would recommend this CD based on it alone.
