Andrea Olmstead describes all of Sessions's symphonies as "serious" and "funereal". In contrast, Prausnitz describes this symphony as having "a joyfully jazzy, organized vigor in its fast outer movements," in contrast with the middle movement, "a somberly reflective Largo that yields nothing to overt emotion. ..."
