Alternating between haunting, sustained chords and exciting melodic lines, this work features great contrasting styles and exciting percussion. These elements provide an outstanding musical framework for a piece which gives the illusion of being more difficult than it really is. Outstanding teaching tool which will also make a great contest or concert selection.
