thank-you Stephen. I'm so glad you enjoyed it.
I only wish I could ALSO let people see the gorgeous landscapes that inspired each movement of the symphony.
I know it sounds sort of "American", but I hope it's more "North American" than "U.S. of A" American. Contemporary works with rather tonal harmony do have a tendency to sound "American", since American composers have been in the forefront of new-tonal music.

In musical criticism, when issues of craft and technical consideration are set aside, what remains is more subjective. However, until technical issues are dealt with, the subjective portion bears considerably less weight.
