5.0 out of 5 stars Continues to be incredible, November 17, 2005

This review is from: Fall of Constantinople (Audio CD)

I purchased this CD at the premiere of Arches in 2001 in the new addition of the art musuem in Milwaukee. It was a very rich experience seeing it performed live. It was not until I returned to my apartment and listened to the whole CD that I began to understand just how rich this music was. Symphony No. 2 is one of my favorite pieces of music. I am a painter and a writer and have listened to this CD now weekly for four years while working on numerous projects. Great art influences other art, I believe. And this CD has influenced me in many ways.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent capture of Turkish view of sypmhonic music, October 2, 1999

Although Ince is considered properly as a minimalist, his 2nd Symphony is a work that "describes" scenes in all their contours. Ince shows that it is not by chance, his winning the Prix de Rome.
