Description:
Composed in 1986, this fast-paced and dynamic work took the symphonic world by storm. Available here in a playable setting for school ensembles; Richard Saucedo has transposed the key down a third from the original and skilfully adapted some of the more complicated rhythmic patterns without sacrificing any of the excitement and drive. A wonderful introduction to 'minimalist' music from one of America's most treasured contemporary composers.
