Andrew Boysen's Symphony No. 3 "JFK" honors the life of the great U.S. presidents: John Fitzgerald Kennedy. In one continuous movement, the symphony's sections depicts several aspects of his life: "P.T. 109," "Ask not what your country...," "November 22,1963," "John-John." In addition to the battery of inventive percussion, the composer calls for a Solo Violin and a Boy Soprano to tell the story. |
