Description

The idea for a one-movement work stems from my personal affection for the Sibelius 7th Symphony. Using an orchestra smaller than I normally prefer, it more resembles a 'Classical' instrumental ensemble and in keeping with that choice, I opted to explore the iconic classical sonata form.

Each of the three main sections, which are clearly articulated, is a 'mini' sonata form design, thus allowing for an extended range of compositional opportunities – for example non-linear juxtapositions, unpredictable appearances and developments of musical 'objects'. Bernard Rands
