Oh Beautiful

for Percussion Ensemble & Unison Choir

This subtle and moving work calls for a choir over a keyboard percussion ensemble. After setting a stark and solemn mood on the vibraphone, fragments of the tune America start form into a cohesive melody. This is ideal for an introspective moment in any performance.
