Seventh Symphony

Persichetti’s SEVENTH SYMPHONY is a monumental and deeply personal artistic statement. Drawing its themes from the composer’s own Hymns and Responses for the Church Year, the complete symphony has been expertly recast for band by conductor-scholar Chris David Westover-Muñoz, who meticulously followed Persichetti’s own orchestra-to-band transcription methods from A Lincoln Address (itself derived from portions of the SEVENTH SYMPHONY), to stunning effect. College, community, and professional ensembles the world over will be eager to add this “new” symphony by one of the great band composers of all time to their repertoires, as it takes its place alongside the beloved Divertimento, Psalm, Symphony for Band, and other Persichetti classics.
