Wind Songs

Four songs for unison voices, barred instruments (glockenspiel, metallophone and xylophone) and small percussion instruments. Suitable for use in junior and secondary schools, these songs are adventuresome in their sound idiom. Chromatic effects are achieved through the use of F-sharps and B-flats, creating contemporary harmonies with diatonic instruments. Texts, exploring various interpretations of the wind, are by Christina Rossetti, William D. Sargent and Anna Jean and Philip Rhodes. O Wind, Wind Wolves, Lullaby of the Winds, The Wind 20 p.
