Description
Make a powerful statement with this intense yet introspective work. The opening exclamation by percussion becomes a fixture throughout, supported by epic brass lines and energetic woodwind flourishes. Inspired by the hymn "Lo! He Comes with Clouds Descending", the music contrasts themes of pure joy and euphoria with intense reflection and peace. Covering the gamut of emotions, Rapture, by Brian Balmages, is as intense in its lyrical moments as in the height of its rapturous glory. (8:15)
