Total Time = 75:47 Zapata: Images for Orchestra was recorded at the Palau de la Música (Valencia, Spain), live performance on June 30, 1995; Columbus: Images for Orchestra was recorded at the Auditorio Nacional (Madrid, Spain), live performance on January 12, 1992; Reflejos, Music for Strings and Flute was recorded at McConomy Auditorium, Carnegie Mellon University (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania) on March 10, 1997; Divertimentos for String Orchestra was recorded at Levy Hall, Rodef Shalom (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania) on February 27, 1998. Special Thanks: Carnegie Mellon School of Music, Martin Prekop, Kenneth Keeling The recording of Columbus: Images for Orchestra was made possible in part by a grant from Dirección General Relaciones Culturales y Científicas Ministerio de Asuntos Exteriores, Madrid. All works on this recording are published by Beteca Music (ASCAP). ©1999 Leonardo Balada Made in the USA Printed in USA CD comes packaged in a standard plastic jewel case, and includes an 8-page booklet with notes in English. NOTE: Cover front sleeve lists the works presented as: Zapata: Images for Orchestra; Columbus: Images for Orchestra; Reflections; Discovery. The back sleeve gives Reflejos instead of Reflections, and Divertimentos instead of Discovery. That "Discovery" on the front cover to name the fourth work on the CD is most likely an error, as the title of the disc includes the word "Discovery". Balada's Divertimentos (Diversions) are just that, three divertimentos for string orchestra.
