He is represented by Hosannas for Wind Ensemble; a seven-movement suite resplendent with virtuosity, simplicity, chorale melodies, and philosophy. The Logic of all my Dreams (Steven Bryant) is the first movement from Alchemy in Silent Spaces. The music relies on delicate scoring with its drama coming from silence, space and passages of ethereal quiet which swells to a climax and then retreats back to its calm. The opening work is Joseph Schwantner&#8217;s Luminosity (Concerto for Wind Orchestra). Schwantner is sometimes thought of as a \u201cone-hit wonder\u201d with &#8220;\u2026and the mountains rising nowhere\u201d but his compositional styles are extraordinary in all his music and should be performed more often by wind ensembles ready to embrace the challenges. Catherine A. Rand and the University of Southern Mississippi Wind Ensemble excel in this program of mature music few ensembles can rival.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/bandworld.org\/musiclips\/AlchemizeHosannas.mp3\">Listen to recording<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>by David Maslanka, Richard Beale Album Title:\u00a0 ALCHEMIZE Recording:\u00a0 University of Southern Mississippi Wind Ensemble Conductor:\u00a0 Catherine A.
