Tropes: Variants on an Ancient Kyrie

This powerful work is composed using tropes to brilliant effect. Repeated wind and percussion patterns represent centuries of rituals while a particularly haunting effect is achieved in the middle section as "Kyrie eleison, Christe eleison, Kyrie eleison" is whispered, sounding like voices echoing from centuries past. This mixture of old and new celebrates the ageless quality of music in resounding style.
