This slow, dissonant work is fun for both winds and percussionists. The range from concert Bb to Ab is used to tell the story of a sword being crafted. All parts have repetivive lines while using quarter and eighth note rhythms.
File includes pdfs of conductor score, individual parts and a smartmusic file.
