Description
Composer Murray Boren provides listeners with a kaleidoscope of his nationally-known compositional style. Recorded at BYU, the CD features Tantara artist Irene Peery-Fox on the Concerto for Winds and Piano. The harp-piano duets from Liturgical Dance are lovely, and Prayer from Winter Quarters features the BYU Chamber Orchestra with dramatic narration. Though Boren's style is unabashedly contemporary, listeners report the music communicates richly.
