Mozart - Symphony No. 41 - JUPITER

 

Composer Study - Frederick Delius

 Large orchestra, big tone poem things that are formalist and sort of meander from there to there.

Composer of post Wagner, nature inspired, gentle, evanescence, nothingness. Major composer who dabbled in operas, big choral works, tone poems, string quartets and concertos. His most popular piece is On Hearing the First Cuckoo in Spring. Sea Drift after Walt Whitman

He wrote a lot for voices in opera. The most typical work by Delius is A Song of the High Hills.
