About the album

Edward Burlingame Hill is best known today as the teacher of com- posers Leonard Bernstein, Walter Piston, Roger Sessions, Randall Thompson, Virgil Thomson and Elliott Carter. Hill’s beautifully craft- ed compositions have fallen off the musical map, a point illustrated by the fact that this recording of his Symphony No. 4, was made follow- ing its world premiere performance in 2013, some 72 years after the work’s completion! In his day, Hill was performed regularly- between 1916 and 1949, the Boston Symphony performed his music on 85 oc- casions. Peter Bay, Anton Nel, and the Austin Symphony give us vivid performances of these fine scores.
Sinfonie aus der Vergessenheit geborgen: Die Weltpremiere auf CD

​Edward Burlingame Hill ist heute bekannt als Lehrer von großartigen Komponisten wie Leonard Bernstein, Walter Piston, Roger Sessions, Randall Thompson, Virgil Thomson und Elliott Carter, jedoch sind seine handwerklich geschickten Kompositionen vom musikalischen Radar verschwunden. So entstand diese Aufnahme seiner 4. Sinfonie während ihrer Weltpremiere im Jahr 2013 - 72 Jahre nach Beendigung der Komposition. Zu seiner Zeit, wurden seine Werke jedoch noch regelmäßig aufgeführt. Das Boston Symphony spielte seine Musik zwischen 1916 und 1949 beispielsweise bei 85 ihrer Konzerte. Peter Bay, Anton Nel, und das Austin Symphony interpretieren seine 4. Sinfonie in einer besonders lebhaften Art und Weise.
