Fantasy on a Mountain Song William Hines
Curnow 326848
In his own enigmatic way, William Himes takes the simplest of folk songs and transforms it into a feast for the senses. The relatively straightforward exposition of the basic melody soon takes on a more insistent guise. Melodic fragments gradually grow, morph and unite until they launch into the relentless rhythm that leads to the breathtaking finale. Directors who know Mr. Himes' work want to add every new concert band piece he publishes to their basic library you'll want this one too.
