    Orchestra 2001 premieres the seventh and final volume of George Crumb's monumental American Songbooks cycle (this one includes magical settings of “Old Blue,” “On Top of Old Smoky,” and eight others), and presents the area premieres of Boulez's Anthèmes II for solo violin and live electronics and Andriessen's tribute to the American soprano Cathy Berberian. Crumb's haunting folk song settings, Boulez's experiment in sonic virtuosity, and Andriessen's moving paean combine to make this one of Orchestra 2001's most powerful programs.
