  Using landscape as its concept, this book explores orchestral music that represents imagined physical and cultural spaces, natural forces, and humans and wildlife. Comparing works from Europe and Russia alongside the compositions from the US, Canada, Japan, and China, it offers an understanding of the links between music and the worlds around us.
