THE FARAWAY PLACE

Award winner William Hofeldt creates a richly majestic and pastoral mood in this selection, and this publication goes an extra step: Originally scored in Eb Major, the set also includes the same work in D Major. Presenting the same piece in two keys gives directors a choice. The Eb Major version explores some position work and gives orchestras a rich sound, while the version in D Major is slightly easier for the left hand and shows off a brighter timbre.
