Opus III Wind Orchestra Publications #012-3252-75. Published by Opus III Wind Orchestra Publications (CL.012-3252-75). An ambitious composition based on an ancient psalm-chant that the composer heard sung by a group of monks in Europe. Elements from the chant are used in a variety of ways creating a wide range of textures and moods until the chant reappears at the end of the piece scored for the full ensemble. Unique and challenging!
