The Golden Mean

Ottava 99-003  

Featuring Symphony #2 (1997-98), three songs, a chamber work and several short pieces by Jerry Gerber

Gerber's music is often complex, sometimes simple, but, usually accessible.
Symphony #2 explores the relationship of the Golden Mean, a geometric proportion that has
been used by architects for centuries. His songs are rich with poetry and passion. With
harmonic innovation, originality in texture and instrumentation, and an authentic sense
of individual style, this music incorporates Latin rhythms, American harmonies and scales
from Europe and Asia.
