Domus

When composing this work, the brief from the commissioning band was for the composer to base the work on a chorale-like subject matter, and this he has done with aplomb. In the very first bars a chorale melody is presented and gradually the same thematic material is more extensively orchestrated with the melodic themes becoming more varied. With a few surprising harmonic turns the piece comes to a majestic end. This is a well-structured work of extreme elegance. Dur: 9:10
