Confession (Movement 2 from Symphony of Prayer) (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Schmidt, J. Eric

This remarkable composition is the second movement to Eric Schmidt's colourful and dramatic symphony for band. A dark and energetic work, Confession is based on a three-note motive, beginning with a menacing opening, but finally yielding to a beautiful chorale that provides a transition to a somber and reverent conclusion. Brilliant orchestration and well-crafted use of creative thematic material make this a most expressive work. Thanksgiving, the popular third movement of the Symphony of Prayer is also available and makes an excellent choice when performed following Confession.Duration: 6.00
