Symphony No. 2 (Finale)

A rare transcription of the extraordinary music of German composer Emilie Mayer (1812-1883). While most of her compositions remained unpublished, Mayer's works were acclaimed in Germany; she toured frequently, performing her music during her lifetime. This stormy final movement from her second symphony reveals Mayer's bold and confident style. This arrangement for string orchestra and timpani was painstakingly drawn from the handwritten score, offering a profound opportunity to experience the music of this incredible composer for the first time.
