Movement 5: "Tuckets" from Concerto for Brass Quintet by Daron Hagen

"Invocation" and "The Grocer" from Songs of Madness and Sorrow by Daron Hagen

 

...this is an outstanding presentation of riveting music. ...Tenor Paul Sperry does an excellent job of delivering the text and changing characters for each, and the Cleveland Chamber Symphony supports him with sensitivity and conviction.
