Commissioned by the Juilliard School, Ellen Taaffe Zwilich's Symphony No. 5 (Concerto for Orchestra) in four movements has already garnered dazzling critical acclaim with Steve Smith of the New York Times, who names it "
a mix of neo-Classical craftsmanship, roiling energy and tonal accessibility." A Juilliard alumna, Zwilich was especially pleased to compose for the Juilliard Orchestra and its conductor, James Conlon. Consisting of four contrasting movements, Symphony No. 5, according to the composer, "treats the ensemble like a huge chamber ensemble, in which each player or section can be a brilliant soloist one moment and a sensitive partner the next." Performance materials are available on rental. For advanced ensembles. Duration: 24'
