Background: This release by Bridge is a wonderful collection of American orchestral songs, full of discoveries and surprises. Pride of place must go to the first recording of Roy Harris's Give Me the Splendid Silent Sun on a text by Walt Whitman. Harris's brilliant monodrama travels from rural America to the streets of Manhattan, all the while observing and commenting on the ravages of the Civil War.
