Only in Sleep

A nostalgic vision of childhood relived through dreams, this is a work of subtlety - yet it is powerful and expressive. The music has an incandescent freshness; the flugelhorn soloist heard at the opening returns at the close, lost in reverie, while florid arabesques float over one last pair of chordal oscillations, winding down to nothing. This brilliant arrangement for brass band has become every bit as popular as the original choral setting.
