Program Notes
Creating a musical representation of Earth's grand vistas and landscapes, Crosslands opens with a delicate, simple theme that is pastoral and reflective. Building to a bold heroic theme stated by trumpets and horns, the piece then concludes as the music subsides quietly representing the soft rays of a picturesque ocean sunset. Another beautifully descriptive work for winds from the pen of Rossano Galante.
