5.0 out of 5 stars
Actually quite good,
By
This review is from: TOURNEMIRE: Symphonies Nos. 3 and 8 (Audio CD)
This is a recent purchase, and so far I find it fascinating. I understand the composer was a student of Franck's but that isn't readily obvious from the music. I sense all manner of influences, including, intriguingly, some that may have led to the contemporaneous style of Virgil Thompson. Yet, the music is very French, original, *and* it's not easy to date. Tournemire seems to have been one of those earlier 20th Century composers who wasn't influenced by modern trends but who also wasn't trying to hang on to the past.I'll get back to this review when I have more to say about it. Right now I just wanted to offset the undeserved poor review that I found here. This is music that requires repeated and thoughtful listenings. Not for those seeking superficial thrills.
