Sun Music Iii For Orchestra

Score

"The Program Included One Bona Fide Masterpiece, Written In 1967 By Peter Sculthorpe. . .Sun Music Iii (Nos. I,Ii And Iv Are Equally Imposing) Could Have Been Written Only In Australia. The Sounds Of The Far East Notably The Balinese Gamelan Are Juxtaposed With Wild String Harmonics And Incredibly Subtle Use Of Percussion, While Long Breathed Themes Of Utmost Desolation Place Us Square In The Middle Of The Outback."

Bill Zakariasen, Daily News (New York), 25 January 1987
