ISBN 0634064630. 9x12 inches. Kabalevsky/trans. Hunsberger.
Originally composed in 1937, the overture contains a pulsating and driving rhythmic force which is balanced by the flowing secondary theme. As Hunsberger describes, ?the orchestral colors are in a class of their own, ranging from overwhelming fortissimos to chamber effects to raucous splashes of wind and percussion energy.andrdquo.
