Description
One might describe Legend of the Phoenix as "Scenes with Arias" with the solo cello as a singing storyteller. Shaped in one long-reaching, continuous arch, the energy flow is often activated by the soloist, who is at the "philosophic center," beckoning, caressing, and summoning the music's chain of outgrowths. — Augusta Read Thomas
