Based on material borrowed from two English folk songs that were popular in the Southern Appalachians during the early years of American history—“Going to Boston” and “Soldier, Won’t You Marry Me?”. After a very peaceful and tranquil opening, a bold, powerful statement leads to a dreamlike, mesmerizing section. With a powerful percussion contribution, the driving conclusion resounds. An epic work, this is a striking addition to symphonic band literature. (4:45)
