Sauguet's 1st and 2nd symphonies are monummental masterpiece

Edith Swanek | Anaheim, Ca | 03/01/2007

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Sauguet's 1st and 2nd symphonies have some of the character of Frank Martin, some of Honegger, Vaughn-Williams, and even Bruckner. They are massive works, and among the greatest symphonies of the 20th century. The first is a powerhouse paen to the suffering of World War II. The second is an equally effective homage to nature. By the time of his third symphony, he had moved to quasi-serialism, greater brevity, and much less emotion."
