The opening of this unique and masterful work for band places the wind players out in the audience as the listeners are surrounded by the effectof a swirling dance of celestial lights and sounds. Onstage, the percus sion section introduces a driving ostinato pattern later picked up by the entire ensemble. A delicate and beautiful middle section almost suspends time as soloists provide a bluesy interaction with the rich background texture and each other. The frantic pace returns leading to a stunningchorale played by the winds while the percussion continues simultaneous ly at a separate tempo! A creative and magical addition to the repertoire! Dur: c. 9:30
