true, but A4S is the biggest selling piece of classical music in the US
marketplace. it was displaced momentarily by Gorecki's 3rd symphony,
That's really strange. Barber's A4S could be put in the 'easy listening'
category (that's no comment on its qualities) but can you say the same
of the 'Symphony of Sorrows' ? It's captivating, but not so easy. And
much longer.
