Description: Amazon review: "This is really a very remarkable CD, especially for the first two items. Otto Mueller carves out the In Praise of Shahn from musical granite. There is a heady and severe coldness to the music which is masterful and invigorating. It doesn't remind me of Ben Shahn's art very much at all -- it seems cut from the same cloth as Schuman's Eighth symphony -- but maybe it is like Shahn's uncompromising intellectual stance in matters political. The Copland Connotations is projected with a kind of outrageous breadth for such, to my ears, genius miserliness in late Copland's music. In a way this is the same Copland of the Piano Variations and Piano Fantasy, But it is pared down. Sixten Ehrling's reading hits the aesthetic bulls-eye for this more spare, but somehow still unavoidably romantic music."
