Alan Hovhaness wrote pieces about many mountains, mountain ranges, and volcanoes (including individual ones for Mount St. Helens, Glacier Peak, the Appalachians, and more). WQED’s airing his 2nd symphony, Mysterious Mountain, which I was fortunate enough to perform with a past orchestra.

He also wrote pieces honoring Indian and Korean instruments and even religions.

His work is so lush, multifaceted, and atmospheric.
