Two of the Festival’s most interesting performances were given by the Frenchman Charles Munch, conducting Arthur Honegger’s new symphony (written in 1943), and by the Swiss Ernest Ansermet, conducting Stravinsky’s Third Symphony. Honegger’s symphony is notable for its striving towards great depth of thought and emotion. The same tendencies can be seen, I think, in Stravinsky’s new symphony, in which his typically brilliant orchestration is accompanied by simpler, pithier musical language and more profound emotions.
