Extra Score only. Refrains and Variations for 31 wind instruments and percussion. Catena, latin for chain, is a work of enormous range; passages of power and fire alternating with sections of the utmost tranquillity and lyricism: now pungent, now wistful. The broad outline is a set of twelve variations interspersed with ritornelli and passaggi, framed by a prelude and postlude and with a concluding coda. Duration: 14 mins.
