Description:
Duke Wenceslas I ruled Bohemia from 921-935. Today, he is the patron saint of the Czech Republic, and is well known as the subject of the 1853 Christmas carol Good King Wenceslas. This arrangement for brass quintet incorporates quartal fanfares, a variation built on an Eastern mode and a brief glimpse of Smetana's Moldau.
