LEROY ANDERSON


LEROY ANDERSON
ORCHESTRAL MUSIC VOL.2 (2008)
320 KBPS

Leroy Anderson etched out his own unique place in American music – a composer rigorously trained in the classical tradition whose records topped the pop charts, a meticulous arranger of music whose own melodies were crafted with inventive precision. While he labored alone over each measure of each piece, the result sounded as if he had pulled one marvelous tune after another out of his hat almost at will. Here, in the first complete cycle of Anderson’s orchestral music, the Anderson family has made available several pieces that the composer did not release, with some first recordings scattered among the familiar and not-so-familiar titles. Volume Two contains most of the little-known works from Anderson’s last decade.

1. Woodbury Fanfare
2. A Harvard Festival
3. Forgotten Dreams
4. Whistling Kettle
5. Horse And Buggy
6. The Waltzing Cat
7. Home Stretch
8. The Girl In Satin
9. March Of The Two Left Feet
10. Waltz Around The Scale
11. Lullaby Of The Drums
12. Jazz Legato

14. Song Of The Bells
15. Song Of Jupiter
(Arr. of "Where'Er You Walk", Hwv 58 from Haendel)
