Composer: William Himes
Format: Score and Parts
Instrumentation: Concert Band
Level: 3
Prelude and Toccata is based on the traditional German folk tune O wie wohl ist mir am Abend [Oh, how lovely is the evening], which is typically sung as a round. The theme is presented in an atmosphere of tranquility and simplicity before breaking into a three-part round. In contrast, the toccata section changes to a mood of excitement and festivity, becoming more intense and complex with each succeeding phrase. Motifs from the folk tune abound as the music builds to a triumphant conclusion. Prelude and Toccata correlates with Tradition of Excellence Book 3, page 20.
