Winter Dancesfor Symphonic Wind Orchestra
Carroll, Fergal
November, December, January.
A work to make new friends for wind music with its ravishing orchestration, rhythmical nuance and vibrant, lucid textures. Carroll’s keen ear for sonority, stylish elegance and quality of ideas are a breath of fresh air. December, lyrically reflective with gentle seasonal hints, is flanked by faster movements, tingling with buoyant excitement that never overplays its hand. This is a winter of sparkling enchantment, not hibernation. A delight.
