Beschreibung:
Engelberg Variations was composed for the Hibriten High School Band in Lenoir, North Carolina and is based on the hymn, 'When In Our Music God Is Glorified.' It opens with a flourish of activity from the brass and percussion. This gives way to the statement of the theme set in a lovley woodwind chorale featuring flutes and oboes. A lyrical trumpet solo takes the band to a soaring tutti statement of the theme which gets interrupted by a percussion-filled staccato variation. Fragments of the theme are then heard in fun variations juxtaposed against the original theme in augmentation. Engelberg Variations is destined to become a classic!
