Legend of Crystal Lake opens slowly with haunting and mysterious tonal mixture of woodwinds and solo trumpet. Quickly gaining energy the piece launches into a forceful woodwind rhythmic statement punctuated by brass and percussion. A lyrical 3/4 middle section passes a delightful melody between each choir of instruments. The fresh and unique harmonies combined with the rhythmic excitement will make this musical journey a favorite of your students and your audiences. A wonderful choice for contest!
