Description
The first of Iannaccone’s Recollections series, West End Express is fast and dazzling. “The composer made marvelous use of scoring that replicated the driving energy of the mechanical behemoth. Wheels clicking the rails juxtaposed with panoramic visual allusions of open spaces as well as dark, smothering tunnels. A sense of zipping along prevailed in Iannaccone’s effective instrumental colorings. …virile, hypnotic syncopation fused with brilliant brass.” (Kalamazoo Gazette) Dur.: 35′
