Shani’s eloquent interpretation of the symphony highlights the contrasting moods of this three-movement work. Under his baton, the orchestra conveys every last spark of the intense, restless energy of its outer movements, whose turbulence reflects the wartime backdrop against which the symphony was written. Creating an oasis of calm between the two, the conductor and orchestra give a wonderfully lyrical reading of the central slow movement, which quotes part of a traditional song from the Persian Jewish community that Ben-Haim had recently arranged for pioneering Israeli folk singer Bracha Tzfira.Purchase the music (without talk) at:<a href="http://www.classicalmusicdiscoveries.store/store/p1744/Paul_Ben-Haim%3A_Symphony_No._1.html">Paul Ben-Haim: Symphony No. 1 (classicalmusicdiscoveries.store)</a>Your purchase helps to support our show! Classical Music Discoveries is sponsored by La Musica International Chamber Music Festival and Uber. @CMDHedgecock#ClassicalMusicDiscoveries #KeepClassicalMusicAlive#LaMusicaFestival #CMDGrandOperaCompanyofVenice #CMDParisPhilharmonicinOrléans#CMDGermanOperaCompanyofBerlin#CMDGrandOperaCompanyofBarcelonaSpain#ClassicalMusicLivesOn#Uber Please consider supporting our show, thank you!<a href="http://www.classicalmusicdiscoveries.store/donate.html">Donate (classicalmusicdiscoveries.store)</a> staff@classicalmusicdiscoveries.com  This album is broadcasted with the permission of Crossover Media Music Promotion (Zachary Swanson and <a href="http://amandacrossover@gmail.com">Amanda Bloom</a>).
