For Heaven and the Future
The title of this expansive work from Samuel Hazo draws inspiration from a Robert Frost poem, and the thematic material is a creative interpretation of the English folk song Seventeen Come Sunday. Differing from Vaughan Williams’ treatment of the same tune in English Folk Song Suite, this setting remains at a slow tempo throughout and undergoes a myriad of changes through use of harmonic and textural variations. Beautifully and effectively paced with key impact points at just the right moments. Dur: 5:00SKU: HL04004767 -

From Gold
Glistening chords, soaring melodies, broad fanfares and gorgeous chorales will fill your concert hall with this evocative work. Best of all, From Gold sounds much harder than it actually is.

Written entirely in B-flat with few accidentals, the runs are split between instruments for playability, and parts are doubled/cued to build confidence. Young bands will sound mature, and mature bands will be breathtaking. Dur: 4:35SKU: HL4004288 -
