8.572764 Delius: Appalachia • Sea Drift
This release comes hard on the heels of our tremendously successful Delius Mass of Life. It is the Delius American Album.
Appalachia is a set of variations on a slave song which Delius heard when teaching the violin in Virginia. Sea Drift is a song of love and death based on the text of Walt Whitman. There is no other coupling of these two works and the performances by the Florida Orchestra under Stefan Sanderling are outstanding.
