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
¾ 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!
