Composed
in 1984-85,
"Symphony #4: The Air,
the Ether, and the Music of the Mind,"
was premiered by the Ventura Symphony in 1987.
In reference to this piece:
"It's
a sophisticated work ...it's mind-boggling to imagine
what Chesne will be writing in 10
years."
-TONY
JOSEPH, THE VENTURA COUNTY STAR
"...is
melodic and demonstrates Chesne's possession of an ample
pallette of orchestral coloration. The sensibility revealed
in the symphony is sophisticated, yet gentle."
-RITA
MORAN, THE VENTURA COUNTY STAR
"The
music was not only skillfully crafted and well grounded
with fresh new melodic, harmonic, rhythmic, contrapuntal
and orchestral designs, but it was full of emotional content,
of established 20th Century techniques with audience communication
of Apollonian discipline with Dyonisian fervor, which
created a magic that made all who were present want more
of this artist."
-FRANK
SALAZAR, Conductor, VENTURA COUNTY SYMPHONY
