Sam Hazo, composer
of In Heaven's Air, offers this new beautiful work based on a
poem written by his father, poet laureate of Pennsylvania. After a
sensitive introduction, the poem is read under a haunting military
cadence in the percussion. The material in the introduction is then
developed and presented in a lush and beautiful setting. Chimes, wind
chimes, and bells conclude the work which fades to silence. Very compelling.
