Out of the Shadows

受威斯康辛路德中學百年校慶之托，這首規模宏大的作品將威爾士民歌《白蠟樹林》進行了豐富多樣的處理。主旋律首先由圓號和男中音奏出，在接近尾聲時，又以輝煌的、完全配器的合唱形式重現。雙簧管和長笛獨奏者演奏了優美的副主題，隨後是戲劇性的賦格部分。這是一首音樂性極強、效果極佳的樂曲。(6:00)

原文簡介:
Commissioned for the Wisconsin Lutheran High School's centennial year, this expansive work incorporates the Welsh folk song “The Ash Grove” in a lush and varied treatment. The main melody, played first by horns and baritone, returns near the end in a glorious, fully orchestrated chorale. In between is a beautiful secondary theme played by oboe and flute soloists followed by a dramatic fugal section. A musically rewarding and effective piece. (6:00)
