Herndon Exaltations - WBBD9784 | Musica

The opening statement, with fanfare flourish, grows as we are led into development that propels with vigor and force. The composer's legendary use of percussion and the total involvement of every instrumentalist has never been more pronounced. Gyrating ostinatos weave an almost hypnotic blanket, and the colors and timbral changes are myriad. This exceptional work sounds far more difficult than it plays!
