Sunrise - a song to the sun, music to be warmed by. From its softly stroked opening timpani rhythm, setting the mood for a solo horn to emerge and expand as it makes its tonal journey serenely from East to West, the music is never hurried. A dynamic build to high-noon is followed by a return to the quieter sounds as the end of the day is reached and the soft rhythms of the opening are again heard. Altogether the composer has created a wonderfully evocative framework into which performers and listeners can place their own pictures.
