Editorial Reviews Boston Symphony principal harpist Ann Hobson Pilot, seeking to expand harp literature, commissioned young American composer Kevin Kaska to write a work, rare in the music world, a Harp Concerto. A true virtuoso, Pilot's illustrious performance of this concerto offers listeners a heightened appreciation for the demanding world of the harp. Also opening the CD is renowned mezzo-soprano Kristine Jepson's moving performance of Kevin Kaska's haunting song cycle, A Long Way (Three Songs for Mezzo-Soprano and Orchestra). Lyricist Cliff Schorer is showcased in this sound cycle. Each piece makes its recording debut in a compilation of two American composers known for their lyrical and poignant style.
