The Cosmic DivideStyle: Four cosmos-evoking orchestral works by the American composer and organist Hampson Sisler and Rachmaninov's "Russian Song, Op. 11, No. 3." Worldview: "The Cosmic Divide is based on a narrative contained in [chapters 12, 13, and 14 of] the Book of Revelation and describes the division of the universe into the basic forces of good and evil" (the liner notes). Overall quality: Under the direction of Arkady Leytush, the National Symphony Orchestra of Ukraine brings the apocalyptic awe of Sisler's compositions to thrilling and, at times, terrifying life. |
