Description:
William Averitt's Tunebook for Woodwind Quintet is a new take on seven melodies from The Sacred Harp, the most famous of the 19th-century source books. This work combines these melodies with contemporary harmonic practice to create a 19-minute work for woodwind quintet in seven movements: Saints Bound for Heaven, Idumea, Sweet Prospect, Home, The Enquirer, Expression, and Jordan's Shore. For advanced ensembles.
