Immerse yourself in the rich, dramatic world of Howard Hanson's "Merry Mount," a captivating orchestral work that showcases the composer's unique blend of American romanticism and narrative depth. Released in 1998 under the Naxos label, this two-hour opus is a sweeping exploration of the 1630s Massachusetts Bay Colony, where the Puritan settlers' rigid beliefs clash with the free-spirited revelry of a May Day celebration.

The album features a full orchestra, bringing Hanson's intricate score to life with a rich tapestry of sound. "Merry Mount" is a testament to Hanson's ability to create a compelling, character-driven narrative through music, making it a standout piece in the classical repertoire. Whether you're a longtime fan of orchestral works or a newcomer to the genre, this album offers a compelling journey through a pivotal moment in American history, as seen through the lens of one of the 20th century's most innovative composers.
