Product Description
CD82315 Music of Kent Kennan
Music of Kent Kennan
All are from live performances Mp3 & 192 kbps
Perhaps best known for his work, Night Soliloquy,and for his texts on counterpoint and orchestration, Kennan also wrote some other wonderful music. The performance of the Symphony (listed below) was, to the best of my knowledge, the only complete performance ever given of the work. While one can hear the influence of the Walton 1st and the music of Hanson, it is still worthy of a revival.
Kent was quite self-critical as a composer and wrote relatively little as a result.

We sell only opera recordings. The recordings are sent to you in paper sleeves with no tray card or inserts, just the raw discs with printed labels. These recordings are of nonprofessional quality that are in the public domain. The quality of these old opera recordings is not very good and they are meant for collectors and educational purposes only. Most of them are 30 or 40 years old, so they might be blurry, colors faded, and not sound very good, but they might not be available elsewhere. Please note that most of our recordings do not have tracks, they have 1 long track per disc.
