The Symphony No. 48 'Vision of Andromeda' (1982) purports to be an ode to the beautiful asterism that the Hubble telescope has especially revealed in all its majesty, and the symphony is a magnificent tribute. Hovhaness lets himself go in the 4-part symphony: sweeping melodies, characteristic exoticism, ethereal passages, and usage of a wide range of instruments. I know this symphony is an astronomic expression but for my part Hovhaness, with his Armenian heritage, creates more of an impression of Central Asia (maybe 'midnight at the caravansarai'?). Maestro Schwarz has for years been a champion of American music including that of Howard Hanson, David Diamond - and Alan Hovhaness.
