Chosen in 1988 as Composer of the Year by Musical America and now recognized as one of the finest song composers in America, Ned Rorem has also written a significant body of music for orchestra,including Three Symphonies. Written in a refined tonal idiom like so much of Rorem�s music, the 1985 Violin Concerto is notable for its elegiac lyrical invention. The recent Flute Concerto, the first in a series of Philadelphia Orchestra commissions for its principals, was described at its premi�re as �not so much a concerto as a surpassingly imaginative fantasy for flute and orchestra�. It is performed on this world premi�re recording by its dedicatee, Jeffrey Khaner.
