...first movement gave no indication of the change in mood that was to come. In the second movement, orchestra members’ technical precision shone as they navigated through the difficulty of playing an irregular 5/4 time that was meant to be played with the style of a waltz in 3/4 time.The HRO appeared at its very best in the third movement.
