This album features music from four basic traditions: Theatrical\/Operatic, Concerto, Vocal, and Symphonic. Notably, the first orchestral score published in the United States is here: Hans Gram's The Death Song of an Indian Chief. This 1978 collection was recorded in the pre-Civil War Mechanics Hall, which remains one of the finest performance facilities in New England. Liner notes include background information on the music as well as black-and-white illustrations of colonial-era musicians.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Handel's Water Piece \u003cbr\u003e1.2 Overture in Ptolomy \u003cbr\u003e1.3 Overture to Artaxerxes \u003cbr\u003e1.4 Saliment: Minuetto \u003cbr\u003e1.5 Felton: Minuet with Variations \u003cbr\u003e1.6 Stanley: Concerto I \u003cbr\u003e1.7 Death Song of An Indian Chief \u003cbr\u003e1.8 A Youth Adorn'd \u003cbr\u003e1.9 Save Me O Lord \u003cbr\u003e1.10 Billows Foam \u003cbr\u003e1.11 Bremner: Little Colonial Suite \u003cbr\u003e1.12 Bach: Overture III \u003cbr\u003e1.13 Boyce: Symphony \u003cbr\u003e1.14 Symphony from Thomas ; Sally\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"David P.
