Vintner's Daughter/Symphony In 3 Movements

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
The Symphony in Three Movements by Rózsa (b. 1907) was the composer's first large-scale work. Composed in 1930, it's a youthful and exhuberant piece, somewhat--but not overly--influenced by the symphonies being produced by the great French and British composers. What Rózsa was doing (as they all were doing) was incorporating motifs from folk sources--in his case, folk music from Hungary. But even when he intentionally draws from French folk music sources, as he did for The Vintner's Daughter (1955), the work sounds more Hungarian than French. Rózsa's music--even his film music--should have more currency than it does. He's quite good. --Paul Cook

The symphony is a work wriiten by Rozsa when he was 23. Although it was a promising symphony from a young composer, Rozsa could not find anyone who would tackle a large scale work lasting 50 minutes. The symphony was put away for 60 years and revised for this recording when the parts were found (minus the scherzo). It is a tuneful work, well put together and memorable. The symphony is coupled the charming "Vinter's Daughter" variations. This disc is a good introduction to Miklos Rozsa's concert hall music.
