This work tells the story of the pilgrimage along The Camino Frances, the
most popular of the pilgrimage routes through Spain that lead to Santiago de
Compostela, or the church where the bones of St. James the Apostle are said
to be buried. The title of this work,
"Compostela" is translated by some to mean "field of a
star". This comes from the legend
of the discovery of St. James the apostle - his body was said to be revealed
by a star. The bassoon narrates what
we may see and hear along this path, how we may feel, and what we discover
about ourselves as we take this personal journey. In one movement, this work has several
sections that highlight locations and important items along the way. Commissioned and recorded by Eric Van der
Veer Varner.
A work in one movement with titled sections:
I. Field of Stars; II. Buen Camino!; III. A Toast of Happiness; IV. I was
once; V. The Pit of Bones; VI. Cruz del Ferro; VII. The Scallop Shell
Duration approximately 18 minutes
