About the Work
About the Edition
Unending Stream of Life is a set of seven “songs” for wind ensemble, each embodying the original tune, or relating to it in some way. The “Overture” borrows Vaughan Williams’ harmonization of this grand old melody, and this is paralleled with my own harmonization at the end of the piece. Elements of light and dark intertwine in this music which is written at the level of a good high school band.
