Voss's Symphony No. 5, a fourteen-movement canvas in the lineage of Mahler and Bruckner — frozen and glacial, a vast cathedral of blue ice, cold sublime, slow and immense. The baritone surfaces from the orchestral depths in wordless vocalise across a half-hour single arc from a hushed prelude to an unresolved, overwhelming finale.
