LITTLE DRUMMER BOY[4:00] 2/1*-2/1-2/1-2/1, 4-3-3-1, timp+3, hp, cel, Soprano Soloist, SA Children's Choir, SATB Chorus, strings
Commissioned by the Dallas Symphony Orchestra. A very innovative orchestration reminiscent of Ravel's Bolero gives the orchestra plenty to do while the soprano soloist, children, and SATB chorus present the text in a way that brings a fresh approach to its meaning. Quiet beginning and ending, but with big, glorious moments along the way. |
