The second symphony of John Harbison was completed in 1987. His clever and personal harmonic language speaks clearly in this large-scale work through each of its descriptive movements:
Dawn
Daylight (4:41)
Dusk (8:49)
Darkness (14:38)


Performed by the San Francisco Symphony
Conducted by Herbert Blomstedt
