£71.50Ten Thousand Miles - Barry E. Kopetz
The folk song Ten Thousand Miles, also known as The Turtle Dove, captures the essence of the Aeolion mode in a warm, somber, yet flowing melodic line. Appearing in numerous versions, the song is a musical gem that has been passed down in various forms from one folk singer to another. The song may have originated as a 17th century broadside; though many well-known composers have used it as inspiration, this version for band is completely fresh in conception.

£71.50Edgar Allan Poe - Barry E. Kopetz
Edgar Allan Poe is perhaps most well known for his writings on Gothic topics, darkness, and early forms of science fiction, and he almost single-handedly created the genre we now call the detective story. This work effectively captures the darkness that so poignantly defines Poe, the writer. The slow, brooding introduction captures the dark moods that characterize so much of his writing. The second section envisions Poe as he desperately writes, one step ahead of the poverty that always seemed just one heartbeat away. A chilling portrait of this famous literary figure.

Occasional offbeat diversions from the main theme allow a natural energy to alter its character. Quasi-religious chordal passages and lighthearted comic sections lead to the joy and excitement of the extended finishing coda.
